[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In addition to therapy and upping or changing your anti depressant through your PCP Try to get some exercise, ideally outside. start with walking. Look up couch to 5k plans. Running has been the best thing for my anxiety. Anything that gets your heart rate up is a good start. Also listen to audio books or podcasts (not ones about the news) as much as possible to stop your rumination. Or music if I'm working. It works better for me than mindfulness or trying to talk myself out of catastrophizing. Libby is a free app with a ton of audiobooks, and you just need a library card. Hang in there! [/quote] Your advice is sound. However, when you're in a state that OP is in it's not helpful. She needs medical care ASAP. The rest of what you're telling her is important and good and can come later. To tell someone whose heart is already racing from crippling anxiety to take up running is like telling them to climb Mt. Everest. [/quote]
