Mommawheels I have a few games on my phone also, but sometimes when I'm at work and I go into a anxiety or panic attack I can't play them...

Hey Countrygirl, exercising regularly and meditation help me the most🤞🏻

Meditation is working for my anxiety. My favorite app is DARE. Some other good ones are: Stress and Anxiety Companion, Calm, and Headspace. Give them a try and see if any work for you.

Hey! As written above, meditation is helpful, especially in bed before sleep or before a panic attack (if you can recognize it). Also, a daily routine including exercise and healthy food keeps me more stable.

For me mild excercise and dedicating some "me" time at the beginning or at the end of the day, makes me feel more stable during anxious times. Sometimes I like doing those two together like going for a long walk while listening to music 🙂🎶

I either read, play crosswords, or eat soemthing really cold or sour to "snap" me out of my funk
