What helps you cope?

Lupus can be physically and emotionally draining. What are some things that help you cope on tough days?

  1. Praying, the adult coloring books, sometimes meditation, cleaning but that puts me in more pain afterwards,watching a movie and or sleeping.

    1. , These are all great ideas! If you run out of coloring pages, we have a few free downloadable ones that you can print out to color: https://lupus.net/living/coloring-pages.. I hope you are able to find some time to rest and relax today!
