Watch or listen to media that discuss concepts that are not anxiety triggering as the last thing you do before going to bed.

Try to memorize long passages or speeches. Bible scripture, speeches like the Gettysburg Address,

YouTube has plenty of videos of DIY projects or other How To's. Podcasts address many different topics.

There are homesteading and farming families that show you their life and projects. Wild Wonderful Off Grid. Acres of Clay, Millennial Farmer,

Check out Jordan Peterson. He has lectures, debates, and speeches that many find very helpful as they learn new ways of thinking about life.

Walter Williams will challenge you to think about some societal misunderstandings.

There is a couple who are rebuilding a salvage sailboat, Expedition Evans. There's Sampson Boat Company and others rebuilding 100 year old sailing yachts.

If you get stuck in a pity party, watch Andy at Harmless Farmer.

Matt's Off Road Recovery is entertaining.

Find things to occupy your mind that do not allow you to get stuck in your anxiety.

I start music playlists that others have arranged that will play continuously

Consider whether the Prevacid has made your anxiety worse.
