practice slow breathing and focus on something in the fist of your hand like a stone or crystal…focus on diverting your mind away from the fear of anxiety with a happy memory and focus on that.

Try listening to spa/relaxation music. Also, get involved doing something like coloring or solitaire. I’m sorry you’re struggling

Thanks. I’ve done some of these things.

Unfortunately so far it’s been a very rough night. Almost 1am now.

At least I can have a nap tomorrow if i need.
