Wow by Junga
Sorry that all I've been doing is posting Journals lately. I don't have time for much else other than small sketches not worth posting individually.
My main question is this - How do you guys handle anxiety? I'm aware that it's something many people in this community suffer from (at least, many of the people I watch tend to have this problem), and I want to know how you cope with it. Because of this big project coming up, I've been on edge and have had anxiety attacks, and, to be honest, I am really unsure of how to handle it. I've been trying to drink more relaxing tea, but it only helps temporarily. I'm open to any advice, stories, etc.
Thanks.

this... isn't the best time to ask this, I suppose XD
going to the doctor is me :I
also drawing. drawing is my key to less anxiety

Sorry. :/
The problem with drawing right now is that it is part of the big project, so I just resort to knitting. I guess that's what happens when you major in something you're passionate about.

Sometimes when it's too much to handle, I do a little bit of meditation. Find a quiet place, truly quiet. Then a comfortable position, close your eyes, breathe in through nose, breathe out through mouth. Try to clear your head while doing so, do so for a while.
It is a momentary fix, but it helps a bit. And as it has been suggested, if you notice a consistent pattern of anxiety that affects you negatively, do see a psychologist. It's not shameful or anything, it takes guts to admit you have some problems.

Ehnehhnnnnehhhh, I'll think about it, at least until after this project.
I've never been too big on meditation. I don't really become calm because my mind is always going a million miles an hour. I'll try it out some more, though.

Tea, dark chocolate, watching my favorite shows on Netflix that make me laugh (I played Archer nonstop during senior year; I've literally watched the entire series through/in the background over 55 times now, and a lot of Futurama or Bob's Burgers too). I guess through all the anxiety, I know that I'm going to make it through, and if I don't, the world sure as heck ain't gonna be over. Really, I just let myself work through the feelings and try not to bottle them up.
