How can I stop waking up anxious
Ive been dealing anxiety and ocd for a year and when I wake up my mind start racing about things that could happen today I have health anxiety about my heart and other things and it doesn't help when I get up for the day and walk around my heart rate goes to 150s-170s and feel lightheaded although the lightheadedness and heart rate goes down after I eat something I also get yearly heart check ups because I had heart surgery as a baby and at my last visit my doctor said everything is fine I get PVCs every once in a while and that scares me it's not always about my health sometimes it's just thinking about the day ahead and knowing it's another day of anxiety does anyone have tips to help me feel less anxious about things in the morning

It's understandabke with all youve been through with your heart, to feel this way!
Anxiety is tough!
Its relentless at times.
What works for me is focusing on something I can see and just keeping my mind on that!
Counting my breaths slowly until my heart rate calms down.
Listening to soothing music to stop the overwhelming, often illogical thoughts!
Telling myself over and over that I am fine, this won't hurt me, it does pass!
Sending you my best wishes!
