Taking things slow and having a routine when possible helps. I hate appointments esp. with doctors. That is anxiety not only for the reason I need to go, but, they try to make it such a big deal and count you as a no show if you are more than 10 mins. late. Even if it is for a reason beyond your control.
Comforting things through the day like taking frequent breaks, meditation tapes or music, naps, yeah on that soft memory foam bed and pillow with a nice soft blanket.
I have a large window beside my bed where I can look out and see nothing but trees and sky. Same at night, I love to see nature.
I use Amazon for items I buy in bulk for the house. Paper products, plastic cups, etc. When I do have to go to the supermarket I go just before closing late at night. Less traffic, few people, more relaxed.
Write down what you need in sections is what makes it easier for me. Like dairy products in one section, meats in another, fruits together in a section. I know the store by heart then I go from section to section with the lists.
@kestrel your post sounds a lot like my days, except I do watch a bit of TV before bed. Prefer my PC though.
Just remember K.I.S.S. as often as possible. Stress and feeling rushed are my killers.
