Start w medical eval: to rule out underlying medical conditions. Talking therapy (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy or insight oriented psychotherapy) is allows for lasting change. Psychiatric meds may be indicated. Don't isolate. Spend time w people. Use your support system. Get out. Get at least 8 hrs of sleep/ night & eat healthfully. Daily aerobic physical activity is a big +. Try acupuncture, tai chi, qi gong or yoga

Challenging problem: Anxiety is a troublesome and challenging issue, and yet it is surprisingly common. Clearly your anxeity is impairing your daily life, and fortunately you are aware of it. There are medical issues as well as psycological issues that can worsen anxiety and should be evaluated by a physician. I suggest you call your doctor now to ask what to do. If you are having any suicidal thoughts dial 911 go2 ER
