For the past few weeks I have felt like I am going to faint when I stand too long. I can hardly make it through the grocery store without feeling like I’m going to fall.

Well I went to my PC and got blood work and other tests and I’m all normal and healthy even.

Sunday I felt so out of it I went to the ER and they said it’s my anxiety.

I just started lexapro for the first time. Took a half dose last night as the doctor instructed. 

I’m super tired and feel my anxiety is boiling right under the surface since Sunday and am struggling to stay calm at things that normally wouldn’t bother me.

Once you’ve hit a major anxiety spike what are ways you bring yourself back down? It’ll be a while until the meds work apparently so I need some soothing options now. Thanks for the help
