Managing Severe Anxiety: What Works Best?

I use Zoloft and it helps. Other than that I picked up some new hobbies and the distraction helps a lot. I keep fish and it’s very relaxing to deal with my tank every night. I also got some plants. Idk, at least for me having a living thing to tend to helps me take my focus off my pain and onto something more productive and fun

Deep breathing. I know it sounds too simple, but imagining calming energy entering your body and anxious energy leaving it has really helped me.

drawing and going outside with my animals always helps me. during the winter i will play video games and go to the gym to help channel all my emotions into something

I like using essential oils, like a diffuser or the little ones u roll on ur body.

I’m in the same boat! Following for any info you get 💕

Breathing exercises, tapping. Walking outside. Trying to put my focus onto a distraction of something that I enjoy doing and doesn't feel too overwhelming.
