I have anxiety issues that have gotten very bad over the years. I’m currently taking medicine for it and it works pretty well. But sometimes I just get to overwhelmed and have panic attacks. I wanted to see if there were other things, not medical, I could do to help.

Something that helps put my mind at ease…
25″Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life?
28″And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.
Deeply inhale thru your nose, hold for 10 secs and exhale slowly and completely thru your mouth.
Repeat numerous times. The additional oxygen should do its magic.
Exercise will help also. The adrenalin will lift your mood.

I used to get anxiety attack in the past and I found that meditation has helped me to overcome it. Google for how to meditate and you should get a number of free resources. Or you can also visit this URL:
