Anyone have any good meditation or exercise techniques? I don't have panic attacks but sometimes I get really irritable and feel somewhat overwhelmed.

And you're asking for advice on an Internet message board?

Why don't you go see a doctor.

Get a hobby or a girlfriend or a life away from an internet website. Volunteer at a homeless shelter start going to Church or start drinking heavily.

If you're looking for an introduction to meditation, I find Jack Kornfield to be a very accessible teacher.

Have you tried a float tank?

neurolift by vitacost works pretty well

there's a big variety of items for anxiety

they're similar to drugs and OTC drugs where you need too see what works best for you.

could be a bit of trial and error

5htp and chamomile tea may help as well, but that neurolift was pretty good when I needed it.

Exercise. Go run yourself until you're about to vomit. Your brain will focus on the body.

Have you tried anal? Great way to rid the body of tension by dominating another.

I know this is the OT and it's full of cool-bro-retards, but I am sure you know alcohol increases anxiety. Exercise is a great anxiety and stress reliever. Meditation in the morning, even for just 5 minutes, helps also.

Just sit in a quiet place and settle your mind before starting the day. There are plenty of guided meditation apps as well but to start just try being quiet and still.

I've always found that lifting weights/running to blow off some steam has alleviated my anxiety flare ups

i work out anywhere from 47 to 52 mins/day, run 12-15 miles/week and do yoga 2x/week. of the three, i'd probably rank yoga at the top when it comes to keeping me balanced.

I find anxiety rises anytime I'm doing less than I am capable of at work. It's like the rot sets in.

Making tomorrow's to-do list at the end of the day then knockng it out when I get in, helps tremendously.

Throw in daily exercise and Asian massage and you've got pure gold, Jerry.

and/or look up scripture that addresses anxiety and fear, if you're Christian. It made a difference for me years ago to take some verses (Philippians 4:6-7) for example and put them up on my dash and bathroom mirror, etc... as a daily reminder. Good luck, man. Anxiety sucks.
