ADHD and Anxiety

As I’m sure most of you know, anxiety is something that {almost} always goes hand-in-hand with ADHD.

Regardless of how hard we may try to avoid those anxious feelings, we sometimes find ourselves in the midst of anxiety.

So what do we do to get ourselves out of it? Here are some of my favorite ways:

1) Breathing exercises such as Alternate Nostril Breathing and Box Breathing
2) Taking a walk, outside in nature
3) Eat something to make sure your blood sugar is balanced
4) Skip the caffeine...caffeine can make the situation worse
5) Aromatherapy... essential oils are known to help with anxiety (I personally love a blend called peace and calming from Young Living)

What are some ways that you have found helpful for reducing your anxiety?
