Thank you for this thread! Anxiety is something many people live with.

How do you manage your anxiety?

1. Assuring self-talk

2. Deep breathing exercises

3. Doing something that gives me a certain amount of safety like saving money. Just the thought of doing something that can contribute to safety can already help.

@AshleyNFlewellenLPC I manage  one day at a time, everyday is a new start 💖

@AshleyNFlewellenLPC

How do you manage your anxiety?

Journaling 

Praying

Doing the tasks and not procrastinating.

If it is too much, I take breaks and relax by doing a hobby or listening to music.

Grounding techniques, breathing exercises,& taking a break from the situation if possible.

@AshleyNFlewellenLPC

I use my crafts to help me change my concentration.
