Staying real busy helps me to reduce my anxiety. I spend a lot of time at the gym too, but others walk or jog a lot. I know one guy that hikes a lot. Others do a lot of bike riding. Whatever works for you. Besides, staying busy is a good way to distract you from the anxiety. My anxiety always seems worse when I'm just sitting around. John
