Setting boundaries and making self-care a priority is extremely important when practicing as a nurse. Discuss methods of self care that you have found to be effective when dealing with an emotional reaction to a situation.

Once you have selected a topic, post a discussion about why that self-care technique is beneficial, how it helps you, how it can benefit your nursing practice, and why self-care is so important when caring for individuals with mental illness.
