Something that really helps me is reflecting on what I actually have to do and the situations I'm actually in. I ruminate and catastrophize a lot so I get stuck in a loop of feeling completely trapped. I'm weighed down by all these thoughts about my life, and it's like a panic attack.
Lately I've been able to break that loop by thinking about what I actually have to do and how it's not actually that hard. Yes, there is fear. The fear is real, but my fear is a thing on its own, divorced from reality. So, when I can affirm that the things that I have to do are not actually that hard, it's reassuring.
