How do you manage your anxiety ?

Question

In my head, some bad is ALWAYS about to happen. I feel like I’m going to die. I’m gonna get in a car wreck. My baby is gonna get kidnapped. My bf is gonna cheat on me. I feel my heart beating hard in my chest. It doesn’t hurt but it’s an unnerving feeling and that’s when I think I’m gonna have a heart attack and die at 26 years old. 😒 Its even getting to the point to where I can’t get to sleep and stay asleep. It’s all exhausting!
I’m 99% sure the cause of this anxiety is from my Nexplanon. I’m getting my insurance back in order so I can take thing thing out but in the mean time, I need coping mechanisms. 😭 Please.

Answer

I wish I could find the post, but I remember seeing something on IG about steps to help you come down from an anxiety attack using your 5 senses. Something like; acknowledge 5 things you can see, 4 objects you can feel/touch around you, 3 things you can hear, 2 things you can smell & 1 thing you can taste. It has helped me a lot whenever I felt my anxiety getting the best of me. It got me to focus on my surroundings and get out of my own head (which can feel like a black hole sometimes). I hope it helps you! 💕
