Anxiety freeze getting worse??

So my anxiety freeze response seemed to have gotten worse? To the point where I can’t seem to run to class when I have to get going because my body feels so anxious and heavy (Im normal weight). Sometimes I automatically stop walking when going to certain classes and I fail to push myself sometimes because my head is filled with so many doubts. Im not sure what to do anymore, Im really trying to stay on track. Exams haven’t started yet thankfully. But my freeze is getting so so much worse :/

I struggle with the same thing, but mine happens in stressful situations, like during the actual exam. I've been told to do breathing exercises, box-breathing, some people call it square breathing, works best for me, or distract myself by looking for things around me that are a certain colour. But best thing to do is go to a counsellor, or a doctor, which I also need to do :smile:
