    Most times, I can't even sit
    because anxiety takes over,

    Sorry, I have an alarm ringing up whenever I hear or read - anxiety… being still used to give me anxiety due to blood pooling. My legs would turn reddish, sometimes just blotchy… but moving kind of helped.

    So, whenever I have to sit, I try to move my legs. Or I stand up before anxiety kicks in or before the blood pooling gets bad. It haven’t gotten that bad anymore but the more stress I have, the worst it gets. So reducing stress has helped me a lot. The constant thinking that I sometimes aren’t aware of but when I catch it, I take a deep breath and focus on my breathing for a while. I focused on leaving my mind blank. It helps my adrenal glands. And it relaxes me.

    I’m glad to see you writing
