Do you deal with anxiety? If so, how do you handle it?

pentacorn · F Best Comment
sometimes. magnesium and exercise, mostly.

You're too kind. Insight is easily obtained through observation, and (unfortunately) suffering.

In my current situation, resting my beleaguered mind is the most difficult challenge, unfortunately.

I'll find the strength. I lose it, then I regain it again eventually.

I'll probably make it to the other side. It's just rough in the meantime.

@GeistInTheMachine true, about insight. very true.

ah, i see. situations not easily escaped can be tough.

it's rough, but you [i]will[/i] make it, not probably. you're smart. i can tell.

pm me anytime you need to talk. i like you. you're a good egg.
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
@pentacorn Ha, thank you. You've been very kind and helpful.

I'll definitely take you up on your offer when I'm in a better frame of mind.

I can feel the "Mondays" creeping in already, but I just need to ground myself and relax.

In the long term, I'll be fine. I have a good feeling about that.

I go hang out with this little guy or my mates. The only people I’d do anything for literally.
SW-User
@SW-User He sure is. I have done so. I absolutely hate the idea of why I have to do this. Bunch of sick fucks 🤦🏻‍♀️
SW-User
@SW-User Is he yours? :)
And I agree. I'm sorry I'm very protective of children x
SW-User
@SW-User My nephew. I adore him to bits and yes I am quite protective of children too.

I have anxiety and usually I lay on the bed and wait till I feel better
SW-User
@SW-User 50 squats and you find relief
SW-User
Yes. I use a variety of things. Getting out by the water or in nature, reading, writing poetry, talking to my friends, posting verses and quotes around where I'll see them, breathing techniques, prayer, knowing how far to push outside of my comfort zone limits and when, guided sleep meditation, etc...

@SW-User All good advice.

I have social anxiety which sucks duck lol. So I listen to music to calm my nerves down so I don't get anxious or nervous. Or if I don't have my ipod, then I keep calm collected and ignore people because I'm not a people person.
SW-User
@newmoon089 music is good but you should spend time in nature. gardening. walking barefoot in forest or earth. helps a lot if not cures it.
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
@newmoon089 I can relate to the social anxiety, and not being a people person.
newmoon089 · 18-21, F
@SW-User Thanks, but I get uncomfortable walking in crowds of people, so I tried to avoid them if I could. But I do take walks in nice weather out.

I fake not having it

It's mind over matter
If you don't mind, then some things will not matter


and if that doesn't help
Pretend I am not me- and just someone else
*that no one knows me and therefore I can do many things without care of judgement or criticism

dont jack off for a couple of days and you will be much more grounded and a lot less anxious

@SW-User weed is not harmful and also medications are all temporary hence, taking them daily. (Could not reply to actual comment)
sighmeupforthat · 46-50, M
that takes a long term (re)vision of your lifestyle.

diet, work, routine, getting away from assholes...
Adaydreambeliever · 56-60, F
I don't like it.. I don't think anyone does..
SW-User
@Adaydreambeliever that wasnt the question
Adaydreambeliever · 56-60, F
@SW-User lol well well well... so let's have some fun.... the question said, 'do you deal with anxiety, how do you handle it.. ' My answer was, I don't like it.. So one can, or should be able to conclude from logical extrapolation that, yes, I have dealt with it, and I don't like it.. Not liking it is a reaction... again logical extrapolation.. I deal with it, by not liking it..
Sometimes, we can say all that without saying all that... we assume people have the powers of deduction to have worked the rest out.
SW-User
@Adaydreambeliever like a machine gun..im all stunned now..lol

@SINAI Apathy has its perks. I often wish I cared less.
SW-User
@GeistInTheMachine apathy is kinda lame. how about shifting focus
GeistInTheMachine · 31-35, M
@SW-User Better idea.

I smoke weed, habitually.

@MougyWolf weed is a temporary relief and harmful
