Does sour candy help Calm you anxiety?

I heard of sour candy helping some calm their anxiety or panic attacks because your brain is more focused on the sourness than anything else, but I was curious if you tried this out or if you have any other reccomendations to help calm anxiety!

I also heard that holding an ice cube or dipping your feet in either warm or cold water would help but I also haven’t tried those lolol

If you have any tips feel free to share them below!! #anxietyresources #GirlTalk #lemon8challenge #anxietysupport #anxietyrelieftips

I just heard someone talking about sour candy helping anxiety the other day! That’s so interesting to me I wonder the science behind it? I haven tried it yet but I want to!

I’ve never heard of this, but I have extreme anxiety and love sour candy so I’m gonna try this next time I feel a panic attack coming on (while also taking my proper meds of course😂)
