My surgery is in 3 weeks, on January 21. I'm starting to get pretty nervous! Any ideas to combat the anxiety without meds?

One more thing- 'Guy' means nothing. I was using my phone and could barely see what I was doing. -

I combat anxiety with a variety of tools, but I'm always interested in learning new coping skills. Some of the things you mentioned are great ideas. I do have a closet that I really should organize lol. Also, I'm great at keeping myself busy. Between my job, my totally cool autistic 19yo son, my daughter, and my granddaughter, I'm busy! I take time for me whenever I can, and I usually curl up and read when I do. I agree with you- there's nothing wrong with being anxious right now. Thank you for giving me a couple more ideas on how to handle it! PS I'd love to come organize your closet :-)
