anxiety help: i worry about everything… - Help.com

yeah there are anxiety medications that should help. i sometimes have that problem. go visit your doctor and they can perscribe you something.

If a person is prone to anxiety, it is usually caused by their brain. But from what you wrote, I understand it’s your anxiety that messes with your brain. Is there not a way to deal with your anxiety other than taking prescription drugs? They can really mess with your brain.

Lemon balm may work. It is natural, and good for treating anxiety. Another one is SAMe.

:) I would try lemon balm first.

This is a bit delayed after your original post date, but how are you doing now?
I used to have severe anxiety with occasional panic attacks (rare, but horrible!) so I completely understand. I felt so helpless because I couldn’t control it. I would wake up everyday in a panic, and I really had no reason to be anxious. I thought it might have been a chemical imbalance in my brain, so I took anti-anxiety/anti-depression medication for awhile. In my experience, the medication didn’t help, but with time, the anxiety went away. The anxiety was all in my head and I would stress and worry about everything. I learned to keep calm and most importantly breathe. Running really helped me. It got most of the nervous energy out of me. Of course the anxiety is still recurring to this day, but it’s gotten a lot better ever since. To rid the anxiety, I would also suggest meditation or yoga. It’s hard if your brain can’t focus, but if you’re dedicated to your health, it really quiets the mind and helps you focus on the important things.
I hope all is well.

Here’s a suggestion: Each time you worry, make yourself write down what you are worried about, and write down what you think the solution is to your worry. And keep following this rule to write it down, along with your idea for a solution. As your worries are resolved, mark off your worries, and see how true to life your idea for a solution really worked. Perhaps you will come to find that you really worried about nothing important at all :)

And if u are worried about something really important, u have your idea for a solution, and can work toward that goal.
