The Spiritual Journey Part VIII: Depression and Anxiety

I know I'm publishing these posts fairly close together, but I felt that part eight couldn't wait.


I write this now as I'm feeling a slight panic attack. Over the past year or so, I've felt highs and lows and don't always know what to make of them. But again, what I've learned is that faith can help you, but it's not a cure-all. So what do I do when prayer, meditation and deep breathing don't help me? I go swimming if it's available. I feel at peace in the water, though I wish the chlorine smelled more pleasant. I feel the weight leave me and get myself to a point of... I wouldn't call it exhaustion, but I can call it good.
What do you do that makes you feel calm?
