My anxiety is pretty bad today so I want to ask a question. What do you do when you are anxious to try and soothe yourself?
I try to do simple repetitive tasks that can help take my mind off my worries but that doesn’t always work.

Best medicine for me: go outside and engage in some kind of physical activity. Not necessarily strenuous — an easy walk with the dog, some light yard work, etc. Nature sounds are also helpful: listening to the wind in the trees, the sound of the water rippling over rocks, birdsong, summer cicadas and frogs, etc.
