I already suffer from GAD, but the last few days I’ve been on the edge of a panic attack and I just can not freaking relax. No insurance, and broke for prescriptions or even OTC meds; so wondering if there’s some kind of fruit/veggie or tea that might help a little bit. I hate this god damn feeling.
The 54321 exercise (or a variation of it, anyway) has gotten me through so much stuff. I recommend it all the time.
The version I was taught had me think of 5 things I can see, 5 things I can hear, 5 things I can feel, then the same with 4, 3 etc., skipping smell (which I can’t do) and taste!
