I Am Scared Of Storms

I have been through some scary storms I have anxiety its suppose to get bad tonight my husband works nights ill,be alone we are in a new town how does someone get through it? Im embarrassed Im a adult.
Please don't interpret this as making fun of you. I'm not.

My dog was terrified of thunder and the noise from fire crackers. I bought a Thundershirt for him which is essentially a stretchy sweater that hugs tight, giving a sense of security. I know you're not a dog, but...

Benadryl is a sort of sedative. Maybe if you took Benadryl and wore a sweater or sweatshirt of your husband's it might help keep you calm?
I neglected to add to my crazy-sounding answer that my dog went from terror so extreme he tried to bite pieces out of the woodwork to stretching out on the floor and falling asleep in a loud thunderstorm.

Try and distract yourself in some way until the storm passes

Close all the windows and curtains and watch a movie; probably not a horror movie! Lots of people are afraid of storms.

I take hawthorn extract in a small glass of water to stop anxiety attacks. You could also take passion flower extract; It's a mild herbal sedative.
