Anxiety sucks

It does...what are you doing that helps?

I use grounding techniques and use a massager to help distract me too

DO you have panic attacks, generalized anxiety or both? I have both...I'm 56 years old and have dealt with anxiety for my entire life.

Gad with some attacks. I had it under control and was doing better than the pandemic and everything else.

My 18 year old daughter is really struggling, her anxiety is turning into OCD...it's hard to watch.

If she hasn't tried therapy it may be a benefit to her. If she has and it didn't work maybe it wasn't a good fit and she should try somewhere else if possible.

I agree, she needs therapy, the problem is...I'd have to find someone who could do it, perhaps over zoom...plus I'm currently on leave without pay because of Covid. I work with adults with disabilities in the "community" at their job sites....they are not working so...I don't.
