When on the phone with someone who has anxiety

[Lammchen]

What are some things to say to someone when you're on the phone and they start saying their anxiety is really high at the moment?

What do you think might be causing that anxiety?

Just gentle talk. Anxiety can be uncontrollable & there might be nothing you can do

I read that anxious folk need to take action. Really I have worked hard all my life beating my mental issues. I don’t give much credit to those who keep using to excuse anti social behaviour because as humans we have the capacity to grow.
