Hi guys first of all I know how you’re feeling I know you don’t believe me but trust me I do know I’ve had every panic you could imagine. Now I’m still dealing with it however I think a huge way to take the power away from anxiety to suppress its power is to find humour in it. I know that might sound a bit ridiculous but when bare with me for a moment. Earlier today I was worrying because I felt sick so as a coping mechanism I began to shake my leg then instead of spieling I thought it’s kind of funny that I’m thinking that shaking my leg is going to prevent me from being sick and then I stated singing out your left leg in take your left leg out shake it all about to make fun of it and it really took the power away It’s not something I’m saying I’ve discovered I’m sure it’s practised in some form of therapy but for me being a comedian myself or at least wanting to be it worked I’m not saying it’ll work straight away or even at all but it’s something uing to try.

I get anxiety in any social situation. I’m typically a very minor person in the mix and I’m a nervous wreck to be around anybody. But sometimes I just have to laugh and say haha nobodies going to pay attention to me and then that makes me feel better

I totally agree with you, I've ended up doing ridiculous dances making up different words to songs and the look I get from my cats makes me laugh! i make myself laugh quite a few times a day to get me thru it.

It's best not to do it infront of a window tho just incase someone looking in 💃🏼

I totally agree, I think humour does absolute wonders for us. It lightens things up and I believe it can help a lot. When I'm feeling happy I love to be silly and laugh a lot , I get weighed Down with my overthinking and being very anxious and serious so it gives me a break.

I would prefer a nice, quiet, soft room. And medication. Lots of medication😁

But dance and sing if it works!
