I've made countless attempts in vain, since doing so practically makes me panic as my anxious thoughts start racing at a thousand a minute

That's something, I feel so much better after yoga exercices, it really helps me calm my mind, get rid of negative emotions. It's a really peaceful state of mind, despite having so many reasons to be anxious and helpless about.

What is your routine?
I followed one of those series on youtube. It was hard but I completed the series. Had me sweating like crazy. I haven't found to motivation to do anymore.

I'm happy it helps you, anon. I wish I were as competent as you. I can't do anything right. Xanax is the only thing that makes me feel how you described. Do you have any resources you could share on meditation?

I just do yoga with Adrien, that can be found on youtube. There are easy to do and very slowpaced, so I'm not sure if that's what you're lookig for. I just need a tool to calm myself and it works well.

I'm not competent, I'm a noob it that matter, but it still works. On meditation not that much, I only do a laic one when I'm taking a walk in the forest by trying to concentrate on my sourrounding and present moment instead of my thoughts.
Maybe somone will share some ins and outs on meditation.

Thank you so much for introducing me to the word laic.

Thats when you return focus and attention to the breath or a sound playing or whatever you choose to focus on, the goal is to focus on a single thing to the exclusion of all else (usually the breath) for as long as you can. And yeah its difficult and hard to make it even 5 minutes at first, but you get better at it over time.

Yeah, I meditate. It's pretty good, but it's not quite the panacea most people hope for I guess.

Also tangentially related, Lucid Dreaming is also something you fags might want to pursue.
