1. Unknown to us, when body gives us anxiety we ask more of it.

The point of anxiety is to take action against the environment. But we stay in it and also, for many reasons hard to explain - we tell our body to produce more anxiety. So body learns over time, thinking thats what you need.

2. Acceptance is a way to tell body that environment is taken care of. No more anxiety is needed.

3. Once anxiety is activated, it is extremely hard to use your intelligence. 0.001. Trick is in retrospect. You learn to behave a predefined way - the next time that environment is encountered . Body will still produce anxiety and you will feel it. But with a plan A , you will learn to ignore it. This takes a lot of practice.

Throw away.

Most of the advice you will get is wrong. Not bad-wrong but waste-your-years-doing-100-useless-stuff-wrong. Most solutions attempt to be a cookie-cutter which fits all. Anxiety is body's natural response to an environment. Your job was not the problem. How you thought you were supposed to work - was the real activator. Even if you find a healthy job, you will yearn that "high" from the stress.

Once anxiety is part of you, no medication or meditation can make it just disappear. It will be carried in your genes. You are may be carrying it from your grand grand parents too .

Good news is that you dont have to be affected by your anxiety. If you learn to accept it as part of your natural response, you will calm it down . Use a good meditation app - not the Silicon Valley ones. You may try various therapies to see what you like. But avoid professionals.

The answer does not require you to spend 1$. Even the richest may not treat anxiety in their lives. More money you spend, worse it may get for you.

Throwaway because market is too bad to say the truth.

Managers who code learn they are inviting political suicide.

1. Managers need to navigate office politics - a full time and full energy job.

2. Other teams will use lack of 8 hours of "coding output" as a weapon to prove that manager is not working.

Putting more political pressure on them and their team.
