I meditate, and that seems to slows things down for me.

I don't really have the patience for meditation. My minds all over the place and I can't even sit still for 5 seconds

The key point of meditation is to let your thoughts flow freely. it's a good way to let out any negative thoughts without dwelling on any one in particular. A lot of people say to relinquish thought from your mind, but resisting what's natural to you is the exact opposite of what you're trying to achieve with meditation, and more than anything you're just retaining the negative concern. It's easier if there aren't distractions around or if you have some sort of ambient background noise to kind of help ease you into a trance-like state. It also helps to have something to focus on, like zone out on a candle flame or a particular picture that you find relaxing. It takes practice, though, just like any skill.
