@SolCreed Having situations of high stress, anxiety, etc is a normal part of life.
Pushing them away often leads to more issues
I just accept it
There are plenty of unhealthy coping mechanisms I sometimes use that I'm sure you can imagine now.
But usually I just accept it.
YMMV - I've never been an anxious person, though my work often stresses me out and I'm starting to get a little salt & pepper in my hair (mid 20s btw)
