Moderator Emeritus ChessieCat Posted June 18, 2020 Moderator Emeritus Share Posted June 18, 2020 It might be helpful to do some scheduled relaxation throughout the day. Don't wait until you feel that you need it. This is how I think of the difference (below). If you don't do anything I think there would be a continual buildup throughout the day with no relief. Whereas doing relaxation throughout the day can bring it back down. And the more often you do it throughout the day the better. In the first line of zeros, it could be that when you do the relaxation you might not even get back to baseline, but only part way lower which could/would mean that the next buildup will come sooner or perhaps go higher still.

Are you working from home? It could it be that your job. work situation, travel and/or social life pre-covid was causing additional stress? It might be worthwhile comparing the situation you were in before the pandemic and after it started to see if you can find something or some things which might have been causing you stress which in turn increases your pgad. You might be able to do/not do/handle things differently so as to keep stress to a minimum.

Administrator Altostrata Posted June 25, 2020 Administrator Share Posted June 25, 2020 We have been advising people not to fast for religious reasons, the exception for people who are ill applies to you. If these bouts of anxiety date back to when you were fasting, that might have been what caused them. Are you back to a regular meal and sleep schedule? Are you doing anything that might be putting stress on your nervous system? Did you have anxiety and panic before you went on psychiatric drugs? If so, you need to learn techniques to manage these symptoms.
