For anxiety or a mixed episode I use guided meditations, you can find some on YouTube. I also use lavender aroma therapy oil. Put it on a cotton ball and carry it around with me. I light candles and listen to calming music. My go to is Sara McLaughlin or the cranberries. Also on my kindle there are free apps that have different sounds you can listen too. I find that calming. I've downloaded like 4 of them. I just lay down and try and focus on the different sounds.

You could also look up dbt distress tolerance skills. See if you find any of those useful.

I don't struggle with hallucinations. Sorry can't really help you there.

I hope you find some relief soon.
What's aps?
Thank you very much for all the suggestions!
