I am having horrible anxiety. I have been having issues every morning at this time. My anxiety goes up an hour before my relief is to show up. Do I just wait it out? Will it eventually stop? I'm not sure what else to do. I do self talk, distract, try to stay in the moment but this anxiety is holding on. Some advice please.

Hey Eagle12,
I can understand your pain. One of my family members was going through the same situation. But he tried to overcome this by helping himself. He changed his routine.
Started some meditation for good thoughts, a healthy diet, spending time with loved ones, cuddle with his pet. These small changes helped him to overcome his anxiety.
I hope these help you too. If the situation gets harder, consult a therapist.
You are not alone. Stay strong, stay safe.
I'm not sure what your morning routine is like or how much time you have, but I find that exercising in the morning helps me. I've had it where I wake up and I have this nervous/shaky anxiety. I go out for a walk and then get home and take a hot shower. Then I might watch something on TV that doesn't require any thinking (almost anything works except the news) while I have breakfast.
The walk gets out my extra energy that would have just been used to fuel my anxiety. The shower and TV help me to relax a bit before I start my day.
Thanks for sharing. I think going slow and feeling what works best for you at the time is the best option. They are all good options. One step at a time and you will get there. I personally like distraction or rest for me ( especially a really good distraction). What makes you feel better? Do that. I wish you well. Take care.
I wrk out in the morning to get rid of energy plus affirmations.
