I just write down everything in my diary (it's an app), idk how to control this exactly, my heart beat now a days is always quick, almost all the time... I feel lazy and always have this feeling of weakness. and low appetite on eating anything and have this shivering feeling... and feel sleepy with low energy, I get anxious easily which is not something that has happened this often before, Even from slightest things or noise...

Sometimes it feels like it's getting better then when I feel okay, again something happens which causes, it to get worse :(

@jesusredeemedme2425 Idk about instantly but box breathing helps. Grounding can help sometimes. The trick is to practice these things when you're NOT panicking and have different things you can try

Trying to distract my mind using my phone as a tool. Could be anything, checking emails, playing simple quick games, and lately trying out different anxiety relief apps.

Always have mints on hand for that sensory distraction also helps.
