I started having anxiety three months ago. I'm new to having anxiety, and it's making me depressed.
How can I control my anxiety?
One of the first steps is to manage anxiety and depression symptoms are to establish a goodself-careroutine. Start with the most basic things: Eating balanced meals, sleeping at from 6-8 hours and exercise at least 30 minutes a day. These will help you to regulate the chemical imbalance thataffectsyour mood, plus exercising gives you time to vent and be distracted from your thoughts. Once basicself-careis established, I suggest that is a good time to start exploring the source of these feelings, and address them trough therapy. If you have difficulty initiatingself-careroutine talk to your therapist about what motivates you and pushes you to do things, you might find the key during the process. You could also contact your physician or a psychiatrist to discuss medicationoptionsif its too challenging to begin basicself-care.Cmo puedo controlar mi ansiedad?Uno de los primeros pasos para manejar la ansiedad y la depresin es establecer una buena rutina de cuidado personal.
