Dealing With Anxiety

Understand this

Anxiety is a normal body response — not a sign of failure.

Skills that help

  • Label it → “I notice I’m anxious right now”
  • Slow breathing
  • Opposite action
  • Check the thought → “What’s the evidence?”

Build tolerance

Avoidance grows anxiety. Small exposures shrink it.
