increasing anxiety

I havent posted in awhile..

but i was wondering if anyone can offer me some advice..

my anxiety and paranoia about situations thats never occur is overpowering at the moment. I seem to overthink everything, but no reason to why my thought process is that way. I admit I have had some severe negative thoughts however no intention to act on them what so ever as i know they are negative.

drs put me on mirtazapine, however ive put on so much weight its starting to effect my self esteem.. id rather not take medication so healthy coping mechanisms would be greatly appreciated

i have already tried cbt and awaiting a referral for another stint but something for the present moment would be so so helpful

TIA ox

Mindful mediation youtube or listening to religious discourses might help. You are aware of your breathing while you think about how your body feels, starting top to bottom of your toes - be aware of your thoughts but don't put much heed on them - let them pass and begin to relax and calm down.
