I Have Anxiety

i cope by making a list to give a sense that ive prepared, step back and calming down when im overwhelmed (tea, chocolate, green plants, water, music, call friend - helps), do yoga. having people to actually give you advice and comforts also helps

I have many methods on deailing with this. My favorite one is tricking my mind into believing that I'm actually excited instead of anxious. Since both feelings have similar physical affects on the body its easy to fake it till you make it. Also shutting every other person out of your concious mind for a few seconds in a public place helps. Focus purely on just simply "being" during this process. When i do this I probably look frozen but thats the point. When I'm doing this I'm only focused on simply "being" rather than on other people's thoughts of me. It sounds strange I know.

@Qveenve There is a vitamin for this. Purchase a small bottle of St Johns Wort. Available most anywhere O.T.C. This is a natural herb that helps you to calm down. It's not expensive. AND is all natural. Check it out over the Internet.

@Carla1951 wow will do! thanks! im interested in homely made remedies too. so far i only tried to eat healthy to liften up mood (but the result is quite indirect)

@Qveenve try steam therapy. Breathing in the steam from boiling water calms me down. It's not some drug or anything. Its purely water. All i do is get water boiling and then i breathe in the steam.

@Qveenve I used to be a big defender of this site, but after coming back from being off it for a while, I see why people bitch about it. But maybe I'm just jaded.
