I'm 18 years old and have been an anxious person as long as I can remember. Having anxiety bother me nearly each and every day isnt only scary but probably the most annoying thing that has ever happened to me. I almost cant even play a good game of soccer without having these crazy feelings set in. I want to be able to live life normally without having thoughts running through my head such as "the world around me not feeling as real as it should" and for all this fear of going insane to go away. I want to be able to live a normal happy life.
A social worker whom I go to recommended a deep breathing relaxation exercise to me, which I am waiting to come in the mail to begin, and I also drank my first cup of chamomile tea today which felt as if it helped a bit. If anyone has any other suggestions on what I can try to get away from all this and be back on my way to a normal happy life it would be greatly appreciated.
I would also like to accomplish this without any meds. I can't stand taking medication.
Thank you.
