Thank you! I’m trying so hard to accept it rather than let it drive me and further increase my anxiety. Any tips/resources that have helped you with acceptance?

Hi I've had anxiety off and on for over 40 years .when I'm feeling really anxious I say to myself you have had this before and its not nice !!! But you survived it and the anxiety calms down and you know it will calm down again even if it takes a month a week a day !!! Let the symptoms ride over you and carry on as best you can.it will get better and it can be really hard to accept it at times.but you know all the symptoms are caused by anxiety or stress.you can do it trust yourself.keep telling yourself i will get through this.

Have you read any Dr Claire weeks books about anxiety ? Her books are well written and explains anxiety and acceptance she helped millions of people with anxiety. I also recomend a low dose diazepam 2 mg for really bad days even taking half a tablet with really help with the anxiety.
