I get that feeling completely — anxiety isn’t something you can just “turn off.” What really helped me was learning to observe my thought patterns instead of fighting them. I came across a resource called the liven app , which focuses on mindfulness and emotional awareness. It’s not a quick fix, but it helps you track moods and recognize triggers over time. That steady self-reflection makes it easier to respond calmly instead of spiraling into panic.
