How can I manage my anxiety at crowded events?

It's common to feel anxious in crowded places. Have you tried any relaxation techniques before attending?

I usually just avoid them, but I want to try going to a concert next week.

That's a great step! You might find it helpful to practice deep breathing or visualization techniques before the event.

What if I start feeling overwhelmed during the concert?

If you feel overwhelmed, find a quiet space to step away for a moment. Focus on your breathing and remind yourself that it's okay to take a break.

Are there any specific strategies for staying calm in the moment?

Yes! Try grounding techniques, like focusing on your senses. Identify five things you can see, four you can touch, three you can hear, two you can smell, and one you can taste.
