How do you calm your anxiety?
I had an anxiety attack about an opinion this morning. It was dreadful. I basically have anxiety disorder. And in the middle of that attack what I could do to make myself forget it was to listen continuously to music and scroll mindlessly. And waste my time but this time I opened YouTube searched 'How to calm anxiety attack?' And now I am feeling better than before. At least enough to study. I loved that how did I cope with my anxiety this time without getting a temporary dose of dopamine.
Please tell me other ways to calm anxiety while studying.

Anxiety can be so gripping. I applaud you for coming here and being upfront. I think you have the right idea with the music. Do you ever look at videos? I enjoy videos of beaches, rain, water, Zen, Kittens, puppies, train rides, rides through the countryside.... Give these a look and see how they work for you.
tysm @caringShoulder1357🙏🙏. I normally use Pomodoro technique study for 25 min then watch my favourite YouTube channel for next 5 minutes. It really works well. But if I watch more than 4 music videos it becomes hard to came back to study so I don't watch more than 2 music videos at once.
Well, really thanks for sharing your way to cope with that.
