[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Breathing. Lots of breathing. I tend to hold my breath when stressed so I consciously remind myself to take deep breaths throughout the day. Walks in nature. If you have a dog or pet, petting them takes the edge off off. Melatonin to sleep. Prioritize sleep as much as possible. Sometimes it’s hard when you have a lot on your plate. No alcohol, no caffeine. - person with C-PTSD [/quote] I’m the pp, to add. I see several recs for exercise. Exercise is necessary but when you’re at your absolute most anxiety related depleted, intense exercise makes it worse. You need to keep your heart rate from getting too high. Exercise is a stress on your body and when you can’t take much more, it can make you worse. I learned this the hard way. Walk, light weights, nothing intense. [/quote]
