Managing anxiety without meds is so hard. Sometimes I wonder if I should get something prescribed to me for my emotional state. I feel so exhausted all the time. How to cope?

Hi @daybyday2

How are you doing today?

Chronic illnesses take a lot out of a person. It is worth talking to a doctor and seeing what they recommend. I will tag a few other members who live with anxiety and see what they suggest.

What do you do to manage your daily anxiety? How long did you live before you asked for a prescription? Did it help?

Let's share for @daybyday2

I used to feel drained 24/7—like no matter how much I slept or meditated, the heaviness just wouldn’t lift. What helped me ease into a better headspace was trying natural approaches, including microdosing. Found some guidance through https://gomicromagic.com/ and started super slow. Didn’t “fix” everything overnight, but it helped take the edge off without feeling like I lost myself.
