How to manage my bad anxiety attacks

How to manage my bad anxiety attacks

Hi everyone. I just need tips on how to manage anxiety. I had a anxiety attack around 3:30PM and went away around 6:30 I usually have to lye down as I feel paralysed to do anything. I get racing thoughts and it’s hard to calm myself I do breathing exercise and grounding techniques like name things I see and what I hear. But it just doesn’t work. While I am work I can’t lye down there I just can’t focus. But my work easy I don’t need use my mind. So when I’m at work I’m at work I get really bad anxiety attacks I just have to scan items and pack peoples groceries in their bags. But I’m thinking in the future of doing an office job how will I focus when I need to use my mind to do work. How will I manage. I hate the anxiety attacks that I can’t handle I feel like crying I need a cure I want it to go away. I can’t manage working more hours I just am doing 3 days five hours shift sometimes I do 7 hours. I need to get a handle of my anxiety so I can work more hours. I wanted to know are there others who have successfully managed there anxiety and work more hours. How did you do it any techniques please share

Re: How to manage my bad anxiety attacks

@Teej thank you for your response. With the anxiety you have do you work full time? Is so how do you manage work and anxiety at the same time? Are you on medication?
