think of a way to eliminate it without hiding behind simple meaningless actions that don't amount to anything for helping anxiety.
or just hide... either or.

This kind of attitude can probably be partially blamed for your alcoholism and anxiety.

If I don't do at least some of these things on a weekly basis, I have crazy anxiety. I just get like super in the zone with what I'm doing and the world falls away.

you're halfway there. try and look a little further back to see f you can identify what the trigger was but working on that feeling as it begins is a good start. dont try to analyze it, try to change it. it has worked for me

True anxiety there is no reason for it. There's no talking yourself out of it. I'm not anxious at all except in deep alcohol wds.

I beg to differ, just because you aren't aware of a trigger doesn't mean there isn't one.

no but there are often triggers and you're wrong because I went through a few years when I experienced a damn near crippling anxiety, once I recognized the triggers I managed to avoid certain things and situations to reduce it's frequency and when it did happen I managed to reduce the effect it was having

Point and case, good words of wisdom. Identifying the triggers can lead to preventing anxiety before it even starts.

ya i cant really comment. I've never had anxiety until i started drinking every day. ya the every day bull shit of course i get it. asking pretty girls on dates etc. basically high school shit. but now im 24 and am very confident but i have been drinking for 2 years straight. thats whats causing me to faulter. and it makes me sad.

If you have reason to believe substance use/abuse is leading to your anxiety than I would highly recommend taking a break or even permanently quitting, I use to think Meth made me super-confident, but then became extremely self conscious and anxious 24/7, it took me almost two years to realize it was the meth.

that's the thing it makes me anxious not having it. i know i need to quit. i know whats causing it. denial is not something i do. i was a heroin addict for 3 years im 2 years clean june 15th. i know whats causing it and honestly alcohol wds are worse than heroin imo.

Yeah those w/d can kill you!! be careful, heroin w/d aren't shit to benzo/alcohol withdrawal.
Can you be in denial if you think your in denial? lol, idk man-- I don't have the answers I just have ideas on how to stay sober because I'm desperately trying to achieve the same goal, I quit drinking a few days ago and am just smoking weed now.

I have had anxiety attacks since I was 9yo Adderal IR 30mg at 9yo started it
Ive had anxiety attacks atleast 1 time a year, usually around 1 time a month, but In 2012, and 2014 my anxiety level was throught the roof, mainly cause of how shitty my life was then
One thing that helps anxiety is Excersing in any shape or form, and improving your own life, those things help immensely ime

I agree, when I first was able to put together some sobriety I was having a panic attack almost daily, It wasn't until I went nutz-o at the gym trying to get my natural endorphin's going again did it help, didn't remove the problem but it helps. This time around I just dig holes outside and plant shit in em, just to stay busy and keep my mind elsewhere.

I use Valerian root. I would get anxiety attacks so bad my hands would be shaking, sometimes losing motor control in them, haven't had one since, very relaxing.

I dunno if im crazy but I believe the brain is capable of outsmarting itself, so I think you should just learn to train your brain that anxiety is a good thing and conquer that bitch. I have noticed I like feeling somewhat physical pain and it must be because I learned to correlate pain in my mind with doing something right. Im talking about working out pain, doing work while injured type of stuff not getting hit by a car.
I think what I just said is a actual real thing, I think the free deep sea divers do the same type of training.
