Hey Pandas, What Are Your Go-To Tips For Managing Anxiety?
As a student of psychology, I can add this tip: Bounce a ball against a wall, or do some juggling (or something similar which involves the use of quick reflexes and/or eye-to hand coördination). The human mind can't handle 'planning' (which anxiety is a derailed version of) and quick action responses at the same time, and it gives precedence to the quick action part. This gives your chemical regulation system the time to reset.Hey Pandas, What Are Your Go-To Tips For Managing Anxiety?

A simple thing that always helps is cleaning my apartment. Just quickly washing the dishes, putting away clothes and random stuff - little things like that. Not a cure for anxiety, but I always feel calmer and more collected in a nice environment.Show All 8 Upvotes
