My no-meds approach to anxiety finally feels like a win

I've been dealing with anxiety for years but avoided prescription drugs due to side effects. Instead, I focused on breathwork and cutting out caffeine, which somehow made a big difference. What other off-label mental health tricks are people too scared to share?

Cold showers. Sounds nuts but it works.

What's @the_ray's point if it's just painful (like, why bother)?

Read somewhere that chewing gum can trick your brain out of a panic loop. Sounds dumb but same logic as the cold shower thing, shocks the system.
