Inspired by the anxiety/panic attacks thread...

The things I listed in the anxiety/panic attacks thread.

I try to write or just get outside.
When I have anxiety attacks I feel like I'm going to explode, so I usually bolt for the door. It never goes over well with my parents, but it's just my first instinct.
The worst attacks happen when they're yelling at me, too. Haha.

Sometimes I'll take a nap. Sleeping makes feelings go away.

I eat a shitload of chocolate and caffeine drinks. Basically, caloric food in general... the stomach just has to be PACKED. You gotta fill something up.

What I hate the most is when I get NEEDY. It's humiliating.

Listening to music helps, but it's usually when I'm in the computer - I just HAVE to be on msn and end up distracting myself with bullshit. I wish there were other healthier ways to calm the shit down besides that... sleeping doesn't really work, unless when I take painkillers & beer, and that isn't healthy either.

Caffeine is bad for the anxiety
