We all know someone who\u2019s always anxious about, well, everything. While everyone gets nervous about this or that, for some people, anxiety affects their daily life. We often refer to them as \u201cnervous\u201d or \u201ca real worrier,\u201d but those labels simplify what our anxious loved ones experience, and even giving them a gift can create stress for both the giver and the givee. After all, you don\u2019t want to give them something that will make their anxiety worse, like concert tickets if they have social anxiety. <\/span><\/p>\n

Remember, you aren\u2019t trying to \u201cfix\u201d them. So, when gifting to an anxious friend or family member, the hope is to support them, nourish them, and call out all the wonderful things you love about them while, yes, keeping their anxieties in mind. Gifts should ease stress, and help reduce some of the secondary symptoms or primary causes of anxiety. After all, giving a gift should never be about you, but about helping your loved one enjoy life to the fullest. <\/span><\/p>\n

Gift Ideas for People with Anxiety<\/h4>\n

Many of these ideas can be helpful for people with normal, wholly explicable anxiety about specific things, such as <\/span>being new parents<\/span><\/a> or having your team in the Super Bowl (and no, I\u2019m not comparing the two…really). But they\u2019re also extremely helpful for people suffering from general anxiety disorders:<\/span><\/p>\n

A White Noise Machine<\/b><\/p>\n

Some of the symptoms of clinical anxiety include restlessness, fatigue, and an inability to sleep. The mind is always running, and it can be extremely acute. But <\/span>white noise machines<\/span> can help drown out that insistent inner voice, and are proven to encourage sleep. That shouldn\u2019t be underestimated. Not sleeping right is downright unhealthy. A good night\u2019s rest isn\u2019t a cure, of course, but it can help mitigate some of the symptoms of anxiety and stress. <\/span><\/p>\n

Yoga Classes or Accessories<\/b><\/p>\n

One year, I signed my particularly anxious friend Mark and I up for yoga classes. I had never done it before, and neither had he, so we were able to be yoga newbies together. <\/span><\/p>\n

Now, that doesn\u2019t always work\u2014the public aspect might be hard for people with specific types of anxiety, and you might seem like you\u2019re forcing them into doing something. <\/span><\/p>\n

But there are other ways to enjoy the proven therapeutic benefits of yoga without having to take classes at a studio. You can gift them yoga mats, <\/span>DVDs or Blu-Rays<\/span><\/a> (or subscriptions to <\/span>streamed health channels<\/span>), <\/span>yoga pants<\/span><\/a>, and much more. That way they can enjoy it without being out in public. <\/span><\/p>\n

An Indoor Fountain<\/b><\/p>\n

\"indoor<\/a>

This is similar to the white noise machine, but for when your friend is awake. People love fountains. The sound of running water is inherently natural, and stands in contraposition to the unnatural way in which so many of us live, surrounded by pinging technology. <\/span><\/p>\n

There is so much of the modern world that can cause stress or nervousness. Being able to sit on your couch, close your eyes, and feel that you are in a Tennyson-esque idyll can help some of that unnecessary anxiety to melt away. <\/span><\/p>\n

Organizational Tools<\/b><\/p>\n

One thing that Mark always talks about is being disorganized. So, for his birthday this year, I\u2019ve been looking at easy organizational tools, like closet organizers or better shelving systems (which improve upon his careful system of putting whatever, wherever).<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not just a matter of buying things, either. I\u2019ve sent him <\/span>really helpful storage and organizational guides<\/span> so that he can get a handle on what needs to be done, and my wife and I have volunteered our time as well. Well, she\u2019s much better at it than I am. But I can take directions. <\/span><\/p>\n

Soothing Bath Products<\/b><\/p>\n

\"bath<\/a>
Baths can offer peaceful alone time | Image courtesy Etsy seller LoveYourselfBath<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

There are times when being alone can be uncomfortable for someone with anxiety. But, there are also times when it can be great, if the mood is right. And a warm bath always seem to help that mood. <\/span><\/p>\n

People who fear disaster might be overanxious about dropping their book in the bath, or spilling their beverage, or knocking a candle in. But a bath caddy can prevent that, letting the mind be at ease. <\/span>Bath salts<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>bath bombs <\/span><\/a>are also great aromatherapeutic ways to relax, and let the mind be free of itself.<\/span><\/p>\n

A Journal<\/b><\/p>\n

Sometimes, with anxiety, the mind is an enemy, always working its way around to the worst case scenario. A mind that\u2019s allowed to wander unchecked can find some dark corners. That\u2019s where a journal can come in handy. <\/span><\/p>\n

A journal can create focus and reflection in a more organized way, letting an anxious person work through their thoughts, rather than letting their thoughts work through them. It allows for creativity and personal growth. It lets the mind work for, rather than against, itself.<\/p>\n

The Gift of Friendship<\/h4>\n
\"a<\/a>

Really, the line running through all these ideas is friendship. Your friendship and your understanding are keys to helping an anxious friend cope with the world, whether it\u2019s temporary, cause-driven anxiety over something specific, or a clinical condition. <\/span><\/p>\n

You are being there for a friend, and are taking their anxiety not as something to be cured, or dismissed, or certainly not something they \u201cshould just get over,\u201d but as something to live with in the best possible way. You\u2019re helping deal with symptoms while working on causes. <\/span><\/p>\n

You\u2019re looking at your friend and saying you\u2019re there for them. That, your presence, is the ultimate present any loved one with anxiety needs. <\/span><\/p>\n
