These are all great ideas. I usually try and talk to someone if Im having an anxiety attack. But I never really know what to do if its something to a lesser degree. Sometimes Ill have this constant anxiety for a long period of time that never really gets to the point of a full-blown attack. Like this morning I woke up at about 6am, which is early for me and I had this almost burning feel of nervousness in my chest/stomach. Thats the only way I can describe it. And I couldnt get back to sleep for the life of me. I knew what was bothering me, and its completely ridiculous to get upset over, but it just wouldnt go away. So I finally just got out of bed because theres no way Im going back to sleep, I was just laying there feeling awful. Its kind of lightened up a bit, but its still there. Im just trying to keep it down now.
I used to have a drink or two to calm my nerves too, but I dont really want to be dependent on alcohol to rid my anxiety.
