Sometimes it’s really hard to switch off when your body stays in “fight or flight” mode even outside the office.
If you’ve ever carried workplace anxiety into your evenings or weekends — how did you learn to let go?

If you’re in fight or flight you’re absolutely affecting your health and the number one thing that probably gets affected is your sleep. Unfortunately, I had to learn this the hard way, but the number one thing that helps me with my sleep, a bit of anxiety that is happening now Due to everything that happens every day and overall health is meditation.
There are plenty of different methods out there, you just have to find one that works for you and that you like. I also did a lot of research with sleep and how to impact that.

For me I’m trying to start therapy rather than medication for now just to stop myself from bottling up things!

still learning…

Sorry to hear this! Hopefully you figure something out soon

Medication and meditation helps

Don’t torment yourself- ask your PCP to prescribe some medicines that will calm you down

Honestly in the UK it’s not super common for people to take stress relief and anxiety medication unless really necessary

I probably need medication as well. Sometimes EFT tapping helps me. There’s one specifically on letting the day go on the app ‘Tapping Solutions’.

I agree, for me taking medication isn’t something I’ve thought of before and I’d much rather figure out something without having to take something

I had this sometimes, just have to learn to take some time to switch off. Find a hobby you enjoy and centre on that, you’ll look forward to the event and forget your worries for a short while.

Yeah I’m trying to dedicate certain time to doings hobbies away from a screen too
