Hi, hello! I've been suffering from anxiety for a long long time now and it's getting pretty annoying at this point. For the last couple of months it became even worse and my panic attacks are pretty frequent. I tried therapy twice and was extremely disappointed, my first therapists even induced anxiety for me. So I've been thinking about some other ways to help me deal with this: I've been searching some self help books and workbooks that would help me practice changing my perspective on things. I've also been looking into weighted blankets, weighted plushies (yes, that's a thing for adults too, apparently it really helps) and maybe trying put BetterHelp. One day I will also get a dog (not for this reason of course, just to love him and be friends with him) which I know will help a lot with my feelings, but that's not a possibility at this exact moment. I tried meditating but I only get annoyed.

So did anyone try any of these things or maybe something else? Has it helped at all?
