Hi @CatNev,
I have suffered anxiety at times and it popped up again 1 January as I thought about my pending visit yo see a genetics dr and my first mammogram and ultrasound due 3rd Feb.

The other thing which helps is guided meditation. I find listening to a voice is better for me than meditation music. These are just ideas that worked for me. I hope your anxiety settles.
