Anxiety makes my brain head toward shutdown, and even to the point of feeling like I might faint...and then saying anything to anyone about that or even just wondering whether I need to dial 911 before I do faint (if nobody else knows what is going on) can make the overall problem worse. So whenever anxiety does hit, I immediately sit if I am not already sitting and then close my eyes and try to take a few deep breaths.
