How do you cope with anxiety in a healthy way?

From my experience, I'm not entirely sure that there is a truely healthy way to deal with anxiety.

I've tried lots of different methods. The two most sucessful for me were journaling, and indulging oneself in one's true passion. Putting my thoughts into words that actually make sense (because God knows I don't think comprehesively), or turning up the bass (and pumping up the volume) and just playing whatever riff comes to mind are my escapes.

If I can find someone I can truely confide in, then I find that venting is my coping mechanism. But, because this is a rare occurance for me, it is often not sucessful...

Jam it back in, in the dark.
