[Dogrock]

I have had severe anxiety problems since lockdown,about a problem that doesn’t seem seem to be possible, I have just been put on diazepam 2mg for this problem any ideas how to get rid of the anxiety am using meditation techniques also.

Both diazepam and meditation can help.

If your anxiety is due to a particular problem, then dealing with the problem, if it can be dealt with is the best option.

Perhaps with professional psychological help?

I do sympathise! Lockdown hasn't helped us with RLS for any of us. I've been suffering some recently, which I'm sure is linked to insomnia. I agree meditation can help a lot. I also try to walk quite a bit and fresh air can help me take my mind off things. You're right to follow your doctor's advice, but maybe the important thing is to deal with the cause of the worries.

Very best wishes. You're in good company here, and hope you will write in any time.

This is a forum post on Chronic Fatigue Syndrome but I'm sure it would work for other conditions - eliminating anxiety...
