I get it too when I go out... panicking often on way to somewhere. Often I'm able to check it once I get there. Try to think of the positives of where you are at. If with someone you trust, check in with them. I carry a tiny stuff animal with me & lavender lotion, which help me relax.

That's a great idea Mel.

I use to carry a worry stone in my pocket

On some occasions, my thumb got a good workout lol

Sending you a gentle hug my friend :) xx

Big gentle hug to you too dear one. Mine is a tiny bunny, fits perfectly in my palm, small enough to fit in my purse. I've heard about worry stones. Another good idea, especially since that can easily go in your pocket.
