With the overload of media coverage of the Boston bombings, this can become very stressful; especially for children. These leads to the questions like what should I do or what I would do if found in a situation; such as the Boston bombing or any other emergency.
Blackdoctor.org gave some ways to manage stress in emergency situations such as:
1. Stay Calm. One way to do this is to take some slow, deep breaths.
2. Learn the facts: Rather than allow yourself to become overwhelmed by all that you see in the media, pay special attention to what applies to you. Get information from local authorities
3. Resist becoming overwhelmed by the fears of others: During emergencies, many people panic. Resist getting carried away by those fears. Remind yourself of the facts.
