For me personally, doing different breathing exercises is very important. I honestly worry a lot about how I feel from time to time. I used to get nervous a lot. But now I try not to do that.

Deep breathing for me. Also, try to get politics out of my head.

Watching old movies on TV help me relax.

In order to deal with any mental disorders, be it anxiety or depression, I have always used marijuana. In our state, it is legalized, so I had the right to smoke a little, just to calm my nerves and direct my thoughts in the right, creative direction. I can say with confidence that this is a good idea. And recently I learned that they can also be used for weight loss. I was able to purchase THCV isolate for sale, which helped me a lot. Try it and you.

Some but not all of my fellow veterans will understand this, I came back from Vietnam 50 years ago basically intact and have lived by 2 rules.
Rule one, don't sweat the small stuff
Rule two, it's pretty much all small stuff

Get away from the causes of the problem sparking sporadically throughout your mind uncontrollably. For example society/the herd, negative energy, social media trash, expectations, materialistic/consumer way of life. Go into the forest or whatever natural isolated areas you have alone and connect with your roots, nature. Do this in a spiritual way with a clear mind. 🙏👽

"Hookers and blow"

Before entering a situation that natural instincts would have me avoid, I would tell myself "it's showtime!".
If the situation ambushed me I would l d become detached, analytical. Time would seem to slow.
As far as random panic attacks or anxiety, I don't recall ever experiencing that.

I know this isn't the answer you're expecting, but for me it's marijuana. I got my medical marijuana card through Marijuana Doctor Jacksonville Beach | Marijuana Doctor, and I think it was a good decision. The clinic is great, and everyone there is a good professional, so if you need someone, it's them. I don't support substance use, but it's better than having anxiety and depression all the time. At the same time, I hope to get off drugs as soon as possible, because they cause me a lot of mental changes, and I don't like being unstable.

"sometimes you just have to let it happen" and "just the tip"....

both of these mantra's help me get through the day.

COVID restriction has made things worst for those with depression/anxiety. I hope that we as a nation/society learns from this pandemic. I doubt it. But one can only hope.
