5 months agoCutting out caffeine made a huge difference when I was getting debilitating anxiety about my old cat’s health (despite her being pretty much fine). Honestly, doing that was more helpful than therapy (though I’m not sure that I had the right therapist)
Other than that, going for a walk while on the phone with someone also really helped, as it kept me from spiralling thoughts and had me active.
In a pinch some really sour candy can help to knock you out of an anxiety attack too. You might want to have some on hand.
Holy shit, John Siracusa is involved in that? That’s gonna be IN DEPTH
