anyone got any good ways to lower anxiety levels? I've done, like, pretty much everything I can do to lessen the actual stressors, just looking for a way to make my brain quieten down

@lambdagrrl meds?

@cyrridven yeah but that'd require talking a doc into prescribing something. I'm already on an SSRI so would have to be something other than that, and they don't like to hand out benzos willy-nilly...
mental health advice request, drugs
@lambdagrrl i wish i had a better answer since i get hardcore brain static that won't shut up but if you can figure out a way to distract yourself with something you enjoy and is able to fully grasp your attention it helps but when that doesn't work i generally need to self-medicate with cannabis since it forces the mind to chill out. i haven't found a decent enough active replacement for that when it gets really bad personally.
