basically I've struggled with anxiety for about 8 years (probably longer lmao), back when I was in school all my mental health issues seemed to blur into one big one, but the past 6 months or so everything's kind of separated into the specifics, so like instead of one big voice yelling at me, I have several voices going at once, but they're all prominent and clear (of that makes any sense at all)
I've more or less got a hold on everything, but anxiety's the one I don't have a hold on. I don't really get panic attacks anymore, but the anxiety attacks are crippling
I almost never leave my house unless I'm going to work, and I go through long ass phases of not being able to get to sleep / stay asleep, so the exhaustion just makes the anxiety worse.
does anyone have any tips for dealing with it, aside from the classic breathing and all that stuff
because no matter what I do I have this overwhelming ball of anxiety sitting at my sternum making me feel like I'm either going to vomit or my chest is going to explode and honestly I just want to go to bed and watch scooby doo movies and pretend i don't exist
