・Reflect on how you manage stress in your life and care for your wellbeing. In particular, think about technology and if it is a cause or coping mechanism of stress for you. How has technology impacted your stress levels this year? How can you use technology to support you in you in your wellbeing? 

I think that having technology has been a help and a way of coping and getting away from the world in front of me and not dealing with it in good and bad ways. Listening to music and feeling what the singer feels painfully or sinking into a story that I can read online may be a good thing to clear my mind of the problem I was dealing with for a while before I go back to it. But the internet is such a vast thing, so on one hand, you can see various things that you like and discover new things to love which is great; but on the other hand, because of how big it is there are many people who have many different values and opinions, so it is not rare to meet people who thing differently from you and do not agree with you, and it can cause you to often get hurt unnecessarily. There are heartless people everywhere, and so that is true online too. The internet allows you to talk to anyone who has access to it and with it you can talk to people you would have never if you only talked to people you see everyday. It can allow you to find people who share your interests. But seeing the shiny lives of other people through the photos they post, even knowing those are only snapshots of the best parts of their lives it often makes me feel jealous or not being able to satisfy myself with my everyday life. The internet can help or worsen your mental health situation depending on how you use it. I have to use the internet to my benefit and not let it control me.

・I find it easy to be part of a group. 

No, I do not find it easy to be a part of a group. I find it hard to express my feelings in words so people can understand, and because of the many relationships I had and what I have had said and done to me I don’t even want to talk to people and start anything if it could hurt me or them.

・I can appreciate diverse perspectives on issues and can resolve problems respectfully and effectively. 

I think that it is a completely normal thing to have different thoughts or perspectives on things, and I find it interesting to listen to what they think. I appreciate their thoughts, and think you can resolve problems if you talk things over.

I demonstrate respectful, inclusive behavior. 

I include people when they are not in the group. It does not feel good being the person left out, and I know how it feels like..
