Get Help: If you are writing in your anxiety is probably pretty bad. It will help to get an assessment of what type of anxiety you are having. Some kinds are typical of almost everyone, and some kinds require special treatment. Generally the things that help anxiety are - writing down your worries and examining them carefully (are they realistic?), if they aren't realistic write down why and alternatives.
