It is possible: There are many methods to reduce anxiety. Deep breathing: inhale slowly, hold, exhale slowly. Thought stopping: stop. Replace a disturbing thought with a positive one. Visualization: create a relaxing image to use when anxiety starts.Cognitive behavioral therapy (cbt), successfully teaches how to change thinking and affect feelings. Consult a specialist to find an approach that best fits you.
