You can build up your own toolbox of things that work for you. For me, I find distractions helpful, like coming here, playing computer games, listening to music etc.
Talking here helps, you're not alone in how you feel.  |
I did but they said that I must stay on Lexapro. I wonder though if my anxiety is caused by something else...I actually feel like it is deeper then anxiety because I don't always fear people saying bad things about me or me failing...in fact, it is entirely different from social anxiety, now that I think about it...I only feel fear around people though or just disgust...I do have therapy now thank god. I hope to build my own toolbox someday too. Thank you for responding and for your advice. I hope I am not alone...well in what I exactly feel I guess I am...
