See your doctor: There is medical treatments available to control anxiety. But you need to see your family doctor or ask for a pschiatric consultation and counseling to help control your anxiety.

I would start with: Evaluation by your primary care provider to rule out underlying medical conditions. Once med issues are ruled out or addressed-talking therapy ranks really high. Cognitive behavioral therapy can be quite effective. Aim for daily exercise, 8 hours of sleep per night ; good nutrition with 5 servings of veggies ; 4 of fruit per day. Try tai chi, yoga, qi gong, progressive muscle relaxation, deep.
