Many with issues with anxiety and stress have found an outlet in adult coloring books. Studies have shown that coloring a complicated drawing, i.e. a mandala, etc. can remove stress and anxiety in the brain. For those of you with anxiety issues, I'd recommend investing in one. I have a few, although my favorite is the Cinnamon Bun Dreams coloring book by Squishable (if you don't mind spending a bit more on a coloring book.)
I think that coloring mandalas can be therapeutic, and it's good for low self-esteem/emotional abuse victims when you can look at your finished page and see it as a thing of beauty.
