The constant stress from anxiety disorders can be awful to put up with. It can turn planning into a week-long battle of worrying. And eventually, all that stress can even become a chronic physical pain from the anxiety-stimulated muscle tension.
To avoid dealing with these living conditions for too long, you’ll likely need some outside help. But help like that can come from all sorts of places — even technical ones!
So, if you happen to enjoy technology on a regular basis, here are three forms of technology that could help relieve your anxiety.
- Online Pharmacy Services
Whether you have general anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder or another condition altogether, getting your anxiety medication can be intimidating. You have to worry about planning around financial concerns, health insurance, and potential mishaps that might happen along the way. Overall, it’s a very stressful time.
But you can make ordering your medication much easier if you happen to own a computer or a phone with Internet access. Just go online and look for a reputable international or Canadian pharmacy service website. Also known as a pharmacy referral service, this type of website allows you to connect to pharmacies outside of the United States that have lower prescription prices. Once connected, you can order paroxetine or other medications at an affordable rate without need for any financial concern!
- Mobile Therapy
If you’d like to see a therapist for your anxiety but can’t, consider using mobile therapy instead. While not an exact replacement for a professional licensed in mental health, some apps on your phone are able to help suggest solutions for reducing your stress. For instance, one such app, aptly called Mobile Therapy, asks users to rate their mood and then offers potential therapeutic exercises to help people distance themselves from stressful situations.
- Meditation Apps
Another mobile solution to the stress raised by your anxiety could be meditation apps. There are plenty out there. And they are there to help you focus on your self-awareness, enabling you to get a better sense of how you and your body feel and to get your brain to focus on something less stressful.
An Anxiety and Depression Association of America-reviewed meditation app you could try is Headspace. This mobile program is free to install, and through it, you can learn the basics of meditation and how to work your way from there. Eventually, it should give you the tools you need to reduce your anxiety and stress.
It’s important to note, though, that meditation apps and the two other technical tools mentioned here are not the only devices available for anxiety relief. So if they don’t work out for you, don’t worry. Solutions are still out there, waiting for you to find them. Hopefully, the ones mentioned in this article will help you (and others who experience anxiety regularly) discover the tip of the technological assistance iceberg.
