Chronic anxiety symptoms? I have mostly dealt with these by taking supplies with me wherever I go (eg tissue packs or even sometimes loo rolls etc). Benzos help (I know these are not always prescribed but they help me and it was a battle to persuade a doctor to prescribe them despite my very severe chronic anxiety). Breathing exercises, meditation etc can help with more moderate anxiety.

Do you find severe anxiety or severe depression more distressing (if you do or have experienced both)?
