The quality of your relationships influences how emotionally resilient you can be in the face of adversity. Focus on finding trustworthy and compassionate individuals who can provide help and support. Research civic groups, communities, or other local organizations that you can join to grow your support network.
Becoming emotionally resilient requires that you work towards greater self-knowledge. Understanding how you react to stressful situations helps you gain better control over those reactions.
