What methods do you use to combat anxiety due to Graves’ ? I’m too weak from lost appetite and lack of sleep to exercise, I’m having a difficult time distracting my mind with anything other than this disease. Does anyone take meds for anxiety and does it work?

Hi. Sorry U feel so poorly. It’s a terrible disease. A psychiatrist is talk therapy but they can prescribe anxiety drugs. Graves fuels anxiety. I am riddled with anxiety. People say yoga and mediation to relax the brain. Ugh. I hate those things. I would prefer puzzles or reading to distract my brain.
Honestly, I wish I knew what to do with myself. Anxiety has taken away my joy and my spark. I have trouble closing my eyes because of it. If I do get sleep, I wake up nervous and uneasy. Graves has literally messed up my insides. My mind and body are in a separate tug of war. I try to distract my mind but to no avail. Does Graves’ anxiety ever subside?
I have been prescribed Propranolol its worth a try hope u feel better soon 💜
