Seek psychotherapy: At such a young age, you have a lifetime ahead. Learn some coping skills for dealing with anxiety that don't involve drugs, if possible. Options include cognitive behavior therapy, hypnosis, biofeedback, professional counseling, and stress management training. Psychotropic medication from a physician can also be helpful, but works best combined with one of the aforementioned therapies.

Not for anxiety: Propanolo is used mostly for high blood pressure or palpitations. Anxiety attacks can cause palpitations and Propranolol can help with the palpitations high doses of propanolo can calm you down some, but mostly it will slow you down.
