Experiencing stress is normal, but it is important to monitor your physical and mental health and that of your family after a disaster.  You should also know how to relieve stress and know when to seek further help.

The SAMHSA guide, Tips for Survivors – Managing Stress after a Disaster, provides tips to identify signs of stress and offers techniques to relieve some of that stress.
