What Is The Remedy For Anxiety?

Hi. I've been experiencing alot of anxiety lately. Especially at work. The pressure to speak in front of people has been bothering me and it never use to. Nevermind giving presentations. I don't want to take medication but I feel sometimes in a fog and can't think straight. If I know that i have to speak the anxiety gets overwhelming. Help!?

Hi
Thanks for using healthcare magic

I think, you have social phobia or performance anxiety and in that case, you need some relaxation exercise like JPMR or deep breathing exercise, that would keep you calm. You can also try some benzodiazepine on sos basis. That would help to control situational anxiety. Better to consult a psychologist for proper plan. In case, you need further help, you can ask.

Thanks
