It’s the old breathing through your nose to the count count of 5 hold your breath for 3 sec and exhale slowly to the count of 8. I know it’s a common anxiety breathing technique but it works. I do it as I need to for about 5 min and feel calm. I also understand with kids it’s tough to make quiet time when you need it in the moment but it’s the thing that helps me. Best wishes John

Hi Teskeeling,

I’m so sorry to hear you’re struggling with anxiety. I am a single mother and I can so identify with how difficult it is to raise children when you have an anxiety disorder. If you don’t mind me asking, how many children do you have and how old are they?
