Most effective methods for calming down anxiety without medication?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Psychotherapy: One of the best ways to treat anxiety without medication is psychotherapy. After finding a therapist, this clinician can help with 1) identifying the possible causes of the anxiety, which can have a calming effect in and of itself, and 2) developing new ways of dealing with the anxiety. With regard to the latter, developing a meditation or mindfulness practice is sometimes recommended.
