I hate having anxiety... need to be up at 7am and I can't sleep because nausea :(
.. I hear you. I struggle with anxiety too. I have a few tricks to get me out of an heart pounding episode (had one in the last year)... exercise probably the easiest. There's a scene in "Orange is the New Black" where a woman is having a panic attack, and the hard ass guard makes her do jumping jacks. Everyone thinks he's a jerk, then they witness her panic symptoms slowly disappear while she's exercising. My easy go to, stair step (5 bucks at a garage sale), step up and down watching videos for 30 min.

Other staples in the anxiety pantry (to soothe it):
Kava Kava
GABA
Valerian
Lemon Balm Melissa Leaves
Melatonin (which honestly I don't take anymore.. makes me feel kind of drugged)

My biggest trick is meditation. When I can't sleep, it's the next best substitute. I've seen some great posts on here for that.

It just sucks when you've had 2 hours of sleep in two days and your still waiting for something (pet has surgery in 5 hours) so since I'm anxious I sit here and think, well what is the point of sleeping now I'm just going to have a broken 4 hours of sleep waking up to make sure he is still alive. Luckily his surgery should only take about an hour or so.. but still scary I've never taken a pet to the vet and had them live through it.
