Sometimes you just have to hold on and ride the storm out.... not easy, I
know.... and doing some hard walking, exercise, anything physically
exhausting can help.... good luck man....

Definitely. Except, when mine really gets going I have no hope of
trying to pull it back. I've broken all sorts of things trying to cope
by releasing the pressure, including my knuckles.
Are you suffering at the moment, justa? Hope it'll pass soon.

yes i am
and i hope it passes soon
i try to change the tone of my thoughts, and i manage to a bit, but then it
sneaks up again......
i'm way more like %, if it manages to gets bad enough, i feel like a
sniveling coward..........
and then i can't even process thought, much less emotion
i put on my coat and shoes and took a short but brisk walk.........that
seemed to help a little

Getting the energy out works for me too, sometimes. But perhaps I
should try walking instead of raging at the universe. The fear is the
worst; can screw you up for days.

Then you should make that a priority, imo. I know that the health-care

resolved asap.

My therapist gave me a good story about how anxiety is like a monster
at the back of the bus. When you go back to fight the monster, you are
no longer driving the bus and it's pointless to fight it. I went to
the store and got a stuffed monster and keep it around. Every once in
a while I'll just kick it around the room. It sounds silly, but it's
helped.
