Dear Lybrate-User, Getting out of an abusive relationship is a brave thing to do, good job on being able to take this step. Since your anxiety stems from coming out of an abusive relationship it will be important to explore the thoughts that trigger the anxiety. Meanwhile here are a few things you can try to help manage your anxiety: 1. When you feel like you are becoming anxious, look around you and identify: 5 things you can see, 4 things you can hear, 3 things you can smell, 2 things you can feel and 1 thing you can taste. 2. Deep breathing: Taking deep breaths helps normalise your breathing in times of anxiety. Try taking 5 deeps breaths and slowly bring your breathing back to normal. Please consult privately for further help. Good luck.
