Hi, my mother suffers from anxiety for several years. She is constantly on some medications, and it seams to me as she lost her hope. She has many bad habits, and I believe that some of them worsen her anxiety. Can you tell me from your experience which things make anxiety worse?

Hello. I know exactly how your mother feels. I sometimes feel like there’s no hope for me. The anxiety is torturing me for many years, and some things really do make it worse. I am trying to avoid them, but it’s not always easy. For example, lot of caffeine makes me feel much worse. On days when I drink lots of coffee, I feel like I’m filled with negative energy, and it makes me take more medication. Beside coffee, there is one thing that makes my anxiety even worse, and that is daydreaming. It wouldn’t be a problem if my daydream thoughts were nice, but they are not. I feel like I’m falling asleep, but I’m still awake. In that moment, all the terrible thoughts start crossing my mind, and I can’t control them.
