Dr. Hanid Audish | Cultivating Resilience and Coping Strategies
In addition to promoting digital literacy and
awareness, cultivating resilience and coping strategies is essential for
helping children and adolescents with attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
navigate cyberbullying experiences. Building resilience involves developing the
skills and mindset needed to bounce back from adversity, overcome challenges,
and thrive in the face of adversity. For individuals with
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, who may already struggle with
self-esteem and emotional regulation, resilience-building activities and
interventions can provide valuable support and protection against the negative
effects of cyberbullying.
Encouraging children and adolescents with
ADHD to develop strong social support networks both online and offline can also
help them cope with cyberbullying experiences as highlighted by physicians
including Dr. Hanid Audish. Having trusted friends, family members, or mentors
to turn to for guidance, empathy, and validation can mitigate feelings of
isolation and provide a sense of belonging and connection. Additionally,
teaching coping strategies such as deep breathing exercises, mindfulness techniques,
and positive self-talk can help individuals with
attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder manage stress, regulate emotions, and
maintain a sense of perspective when faced with online harassment.
