I struggled with anxiety after my mother died and I had a job that didn’t allow me to take medication. I had a weird buzzing energy in my abdomen that prevented me from getting a good nights sleep. Here is how I conquered it -

Excercise- Mininum 30 minute jog everyday at a good pace.

Meditation- Minimum 20 minutes every day

Supplements - Valerian root, lithium, melatonin and dopa bean.

Diet- no processed food and sugar. Stopped caffeine as well. No alcohol.

Emotional- I tried to have a good cry everyday to vent my emotions. I stayed away from TV/news and connected with nature. I did research to understand the grieving process. I stayed away from toxic people and guarded my alone time with a vengeance.

The anxiety waned immediately but would creep back if I didn’t adhere to my regimen. I was cured in 30 days but continued this regimen to a lesser degree for about 6 months.

I want to add that you are definitely going through a grieving process and you probably don’t even know it. I recognize right now that I am grieving a stolen election, a threat of losing the country that I love, lost friendships over politics, I miss Trump terribly, the threat of an unknown future, the questioning of how to prepare concerning finances, safety and the corresponding decisions with all of the unknowns.

Hope that helps.
