how do you cope with constant anxiety. Im always getting negative thoughts and the fear takes over all the time making me ill. I cant take anti depressants and even though i know the fear at the time is irrational, i cant seem to take control of this anxiety. How do others cope with this?

Why cant you take antidepressants? There are MANY out there that can do wonders with your anxiety.
If one doesn't work, try & try again until you get the right one that works for you!
Talk with your PSYCHIATRIST about this. Maybe there is another alternative method.

I had that problem till I tried meds that was wrong for me. But I finally got enough strength to just let it out be myself and you know what it was nice no one judge me people even liked me better because I didn't hide myself anymore, and now I am just fine no more anxiety. And I don't really care what people think of me. You need to be able to accept who you are and what you are about and if some don't like it then oh well it's their problem and not yours you'll be amazed at how people will treat you when you finally come out. Its great it's a whole new life. Good luck and best wishes also it's always good to have support.

I would love to tell you but ,I don't COPE that well myself. It is a struggle, but then all of a sudden time passes and you realize that you must be coping with it to some extent because your still here. Hang in there it will pass.

You some sort of meditation technique. Deep breathing sometimes helps to bring rational thoughts to the surface. Hang in there.
