"Anxiety is a kind of fuel that activates the fight-or-flight part of the brain in me.". - Ben Affleck

 You can focus on what a loved one needs and plan how to help instead of getting caught up in the worry.

When you know that anxiety is normal for the situation, you can let go of focusing all your attention on the anxious thoughts and feelings.

Instead, you can turn your attention to what you need to do. You don’t need to do things to make anxiety go away 

You can take a breath and face the challenge. You’ll find that anxiety fades on its own 

 Learning more about the certain types of disorders and helping family and friends to understand the condition better can also be helpful.
