Non stop anxiety and panic attacks today. I fckn hate these things. I truly wouldn’t wish them on anyone. The pst few months have been so bad I’ve pretty much been confined to the house. I really need a break from this 
.
Tommy have you thought about seeing a psychiatrist? They would be able to provide you with medication to help with your anxiety. I too suffered from horrible anxiety and with the help of my psychiatrist and therapist, I’ve been so much better.
Sidenote, I did read an article a couple weeks back about how sour flavors can help anxiety. I just went to Google and copy/pasted what popped up. Doesn’t hurt to try!
“The act of consuming something intensely sour diverts the attention away from the panic attack, then engaging the taste buds and focusing on the sensory experience disrupts the anxiety cycle.”

Thank you Mandy. Yes i have a therapist and I’m on meds for it. I have agoraphobia w/ panic which is pretty rough so outside of being on benzos 24/7, it’s something i have to work on every day. And i did read about the sour stuff. I have sour straws at the ready for when i need them. It helps for a few minutes. I’ll take the breaks where i can get them at this point.

There is little worse than feeling 1 come on. The cycle of alcohol made them worse for me and even thinking about it could bring 1 on but I've found a peace finally. Haven't had one for a long time, praying for ya

Another thing is a natural supplement L-Theanine. It doesn’t work instantly but I do think it helps. I have had panic attacks and know how awful they are. Exercise helps too. Good luck.
