Some ideas for distracting yourself:
- Go to a movie/watch a movie at home
- Go for a coffee
- Clean something (when I'm anxious, I do dishes)
- Do something creative. Drawing, crafts, writing ... something you can absorb yourself in
- Listen to music. When I'm anxious, I put on some really energetic music, turn it up as loud as I can, and then focus all my energy on trying to sing louder than the stereo. Belting it out as loud as possible helps release some of that nervous energy and clears my head.

Hope this helps

Bring on the wonder, we got it all wrong,
we pushed you down deep in our souls, so hang on.
Bring on the wonder, bring on the song,
I pushed you down deep in my soul for too long.
