Dealing with anxiety?

Post by VowsOfSadness » Sat Jun 23, 2007 12:03 am

I have an anxiety disorder (I'm fairly newly diagnosed, about a year or so ago). I get very anxious, I feel like waiting for something bad to happen. I feel like I should be doing something, that I'm wasting time. I manily worry about feeling sick (a side effect of meds) and how am I going to do such and such. Just general worry. Sometimes I even start to feel shaky.

I know I'm not the only one so I cam here for some advice. How do you calm your nerves and get rid of that anxious feeling? What works for you?
