Anxiety is something no one likes to experience as it makes them feel more worried about small things that don’t even deserve to be worried about. Do not tell someone with anxiety to calm down as it can make them feel worse. Listen to what they are saying and always let them know that you are there to help them, your support is what will keep them grounded and be able to get out of their anxious state on their own. You can also troubleshoot with them if it is something or someone causing them anxiety so you can help them figure things out and settle down.
Can you tell me more about what's going on for you?
If you want to tell me more, I'm here to listen
It sounds like you're dealing with a lot at the moment
I'm really sorry to hear that you're feeling like this right now
Struggles make you stronger
You've come through tough times before
There's something good in each day
Look at what you're gaining
Nothing is ever the end of the world
Be patient, things will get better
Hardships often prepare ordinary people for an extraordinary destiny
Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over it became a butterfly
Even the darkest night will end and the sun will rise
Not to spoil the ending for you but everything is going to be OK
If God brings you to it, he will bring you through it
When shit happens, turn it into fertilizer!
Sometimes when things are falling apart they may actually be falling into place
Life is like a roller coaster, you can either scream every time there is a bump or you can throw your hands up and enjoy the ride
If we all threw our problem in a pile and we saw everyone else’s, we’d grab ours back
God only gives you what you can handle. Apparently, he thinks you’re a bad ass
It’s okay to feel what you feel
I’m sorry that you are going through this
I will always be here for you
If you need help just say the word
You’ve been down before, and you can get through this again
There are more things to look forward to
