I live with anxiety daily along with agoraphobia. I take buspar to help me function daily. it takes the edge off. ive come to accept my anxiety as a part of my life and try not to let it get in the way of living. I experience the feelings as I have them, push thru them and keep on doing what I am doing, otherwise I would get nothing done. I imagine an anxiety meter in my head and when it is maxed out, I can relax and dial it down to a manageable level with proper breathing and relaxation techniques.
