Any drug (medical over the counter or street drug) that can help relief constant stress? (lemmy.world)

Besides diagnosed PTSD, I'm under constant extremely high stress levels. it's been a long time. and I assume I would have gotten used to it? anything that can actually help me not be constantly overwhelmed all the time?

don't want to relieve my constant trauma or traumadump. lets just say it feels like my veins are about to explode and I'm often seeking any distraction for my thoughts that are about my reality and are extremely scary.

Diet - food - can have a huge impact on stress. Ensure your getting all the essential nutrients, eliminate sugar, and reduce carbohydrates (go full keto if you can). See metabolic mind for the emerging research on the food brain connection especially with respect to anxiety

Sleep - not getting enough sleep increases cortisol and stress hormones all day

Inflammation - if your slightly allergic to something, like low grade celiac, but eat it anyway... Inflammation, and stress hormone response
