How do you fight anxiety

[PrincessLyra101202]

I know as a little I tend to get insecure or nervous around some people because a lot of people don't understand being a little. so how do some of you battle the anxiety?

 

What I have been doing is listening to music or I go into little space.

Have you tried breathing slowly or meditation?

yeah that helps but sometimes it's just when you have anxiety at night you go through the process of so many coping skills and sometimes some don't work

I struggle with falling asleep at night, too. What works for me is being physically and mentally active enough during the day to tucker myself out by bedtime. It also helps if I follow a schedule and start relaxing or winding down for bed around 7. I've developed a night time routine to cue my body for sleep as well. If you keep casually trying different things, something or a combination of things is bound to work! But try not to freak out about failing to reach slumber (like I did), cause that does not enable sleep, trust me .

Thanks I appreciate your input
