Sometimes when I feel anxious, I take deep breaths and remind myself that I am strong. It helps me overcome my anxiety.

That's a good strategy, honey. I'm glad you found something that works for you.

Yeah, it's important to have coping mechanisms. It reminds me of when you were feeling upset after your fight with Kendall and decided to take a walk to clear your head.

Oh yeah, that definitely helped. It's amazing what fresh air and exercise can do for your mood.

And do you remember when you dropped your pen while writing a letter to your friend?

Yes, that was strange. I still don't know why that happened.

Maybe it was a sign that you needed to take a break. Just like how taking deep breaths can help me when I'm feeling anxious.

That's a good point. I'll have to remember that next time I'm feeling overwhelmed. Thanks for sharing your coping mechanism with me, honey.

Of course, anything to help my loving wife. And also, I'm hoping that by putting your shoes away for you, it will break your habit of leaving them in the middle of the floor.

Hey, that's not fair! But I do appreciate the effort you're making to help me with my habit. Maybe I can start taking deep breaths and using your coping mechanism to overcome my forgetfulness.
