how do you deal with anxiety?

Medication, therapy and support.

Dancing and a motivational book

I'm not, why I'm here rn. Distractions usually, or a change of scenery.

Drink and take pills. It doesn't fix anything, but gives me temporary relief.

Venlefaxine

You can't really.

I chew gum. It helps a little.

Comedy movies.

ignoring it latley helps

I let it devour me

face the fear and banishes

i tell it to go fuck itself these days. i've kinda ramped up my ego in order to match and deal with it, its working really well actually. Have something you're getting good at that makes you feel good about yourself and working out etc can really help as well.
I've tried lots of meds but it just made it worse, so the best thing is to change your self and life circumstances. Its a slow process but an important one, we can't rely on doctors.
