Go see a psychiatrist. He'll initiate a pharmacological therapy, and possibly a cognitive therapy. You'll get better.

Everything that happened or will happen, had to happen that way. The Universe is perfect and you are a facet of that perfection. Trust yourself. TRUST YOURSELF. Have Optimism.

Self-analyze and find the causes, the brainstorm solutions, don't ignore unintuitive solutions. Weigh them and test out your solutions.

can't say this will work for everyone but working out 3 times a week lifted my anxiety over the course of a couple of months. Can't believe what a wreck I've been.

Cognitive therapy via a therapist is far more effective than any medicine, although medicine can help to stabilize a person so therapy can work more effectively.

Anxiety is just your fight-or-flight system kicking in. It is physical energy. To stop anxiety you need to expend that energy, and also try and stop doing anything that induces the fight-or-flight response.

Common anxiety inducing things for me include;
>competitive online video games
>getting angry at stupid people online
>looking at rekt or fight videos
>getting angry at politics
>stressing over work

Meditation. I say that but I know you won't because not one in a hundred has the discipline to get over the first hurdles.

But whatever you do, DON'T start in on psychiatric drugs. You will never get free.
