I went through a three week period of intense, constant anxiety. Have never been anxious before and it was the worst feeling in the world. Meditation and mindfulness exercises helped, but only while I was doing them. As soon as I stopped, the anxiety came back. Being with friends and exercise also helped, while they lasted. But ultimately the only thing that stopped the anxiety in its tracks was xanax. After a week of taking it, my body readjusted and I didn't need it anymore. So this probably isn't much help for chronic, long-term anxiety.
As far as insulin and SI go, could you have your husband store and administer the insulin for you? I was addicted to opiates and have had three surgeries since I quit. My husband hides and doles out the percocet.
