What can i do to relieve anxiety and stress responses?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
A LOT OF THINGS: There are a lot of options for treating stress and anxiety. First, why? Exercise, yoga, meditation, walking, eating healthy, sleeping better, and talking to someone. If more severe then there are medications. The antidepressant class of medications is often used for anxiety. I believe that benzodiazepines (ie xanax, (alprazolam) valium etc) have a place and can be used very safely if prescribed appropriately.
