Default What do you do when you sense your threshold approaching?

Just a general question (and there may be no obvious answer) - what are the best strategies for coping when you sense you've reached your mental/physical limit? Taking a tylenol and lying down? Putting your feet up? Meditating? Calling a friend? Drinking juice, water or tea? I would be interested in hearing how people slow down, get some restorative rest, and mitigate symptoms when PCS is at risk of flaring up.

While I know that rest is key, sometimes I'm reluctant to lie down (at least right away) - maybe because I spent most of my time right after the injury lying down, and I associate it with feeling headachey, unstable and anxious.
