Hello Amipixie, it's nice to meet you, welcome to psych central.

Deep breathing really helps my anxiety, I dont know about you but when my anxiety flares up I tend to breath very shallow, which actually seems to make it worse. To do the deep breathing, you breath in through your nose and out through your mouth.

If you have any questions feel free to private message any community liaison or moderator, here is a link to a list of forum leaders.
