Sorry if this is a silly post!

I’ve experienced varying levels of anxiety throughout my life - ranging from crippling social anxiety (which is almost non-existent now, just through my own self-help and therapy) to GAD-induced derealisation. But the main feeling I get, aside from those bad spikes, is constantly feeling a bit on edge and scared.

If my parents are late home or no-one picks up the phone, I worry they’ve been in a car crash. When I walk into a big building, I immediately think about the best way to escape if a fire breaks out or a terrorist attacks. I question my life choices all the time (I love music and art), wondering if it’s worth pursuing and constantly questioning why I enjoy the things I do. I keep thinking about eventually breaking up with my partner, even though we’re in a very healthy and happy relationship. These feelings aren’t crippling, nor are they absolutely constant. But they are annoying and draining, I’m tired of constantly feeling in survival mode when my life is great.

I’m doing CBT therapy and some deeper psychotherapy, and trying occasional passionflower extract. I’m trying to exercise more, alongside do meditation (but my ADHD makes these things quite hard to do consistently).

Lots of people recommend vigorous exercise, lots of vitamins, and maybe CBD for anxiety. Should I keep trying loads of other remedies before resorting to medication? Or just bite the bullet and go for it?
