Hi, well I still have anxiety so this isn't a suggestion to try and get yourself better but this is something i've found to do when I am getting panicky and it has helped me in the past so I thought I'd share.
What I do when I feel a panic attack coming on or I'm just feeling rather panic is I write myself a reassurence letter. now you can either write this with a pen and paper or if you don't feel good enough to do that type it as a new message in your phone.
I write about the fact that I've felt that way before and survived, I write logical reasons as so why I'm probably feeling that way, I remind myself that panic can not harm you, if you live with someone remind yourself they are there and will look after you, and i remind myself that gos is watching over me. you can write whatever you want, anything that reassures you. let your body relax while you're doing it, maybe lay down if it helps. and I find by the time i'm finished with the letter i'm usually feeling a heck of alot more relax than when I started.
it has never worked for me just reading the letter the next time i get panicky so i just write a new one. i think it's because it destracts you, keeps you thinking and stuff and reminding yourself of posotive and logical things.
anyways give it a try, it could really work for you = )
hope this helps and take care.
