Dealing with anxiety

How do people cope with being anxious?

Sometimes it just gets too much and I crumple. But only on the inside, I'm quite capable of not showing it at all and getting on with life, it's just an extra thing to carry quietly.

Music does help me feel calmer at least for a while.

Anyway, apologies.

  • Thank you so much everyone. I am trying to reply, it's just tricky, like trying to jump on to a round-about in motion.  Sometimes the anxiety mounts into such sheer panic I can't interact. But I know I can, when I can push through the pain of it, it's all good again and worth it. I do really appreciate the advice as I know I need to find a way to climb down from the panic before it gets too much.
