I've always battled anxiety, but it's gotten way worse recently and some of it is my own fault

Firstly - it’s not you fault. It’s not. And the good thing is, you’re reaching out for help and support. Anxiety can come and go. Just when you think you’re on top of it it’s back and you feel like you need to start all over again. It’s ok. It’s just something we all need to keep working on. Thinking of you.

I'm sorry. Sometimes that can be scary. Somethings to help is breathing in your nose and out your mouth. The way I remember it is to sniff the flowers and blow out the candles. Another way is the 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 method. I don't know if that's the name but that's what I call it. What it is is you name 5 things you see, touch 4 things, name 3 things you hear, smell two things, and taste one thing. It works because it makes your brain think about something else and concentrate. I hope you try this and it works for you

Hi Hyperior

I'm sorry that you are going through anxiety, I have been there and it was not easy at all. It's really not your fault to have it, writing here shows how much you are trying to work on it. I hope you get better.

@Hyperior I'm sorry you are going through this. Remember that you are not alone. There is an anxiety guide/resource on 7cups. Have you been able to go through it? If you have any questions about it, please feel free to ask me.
