Tough it out. Anxiety isn't going to kill you. It may feel like it but it isn't. Do you drink alcohol? STOP. Alcohol makes anxiety worse.

Also look into other ways to help you relax like biofeed back, meditaiton. NOT MEDICATION. Meds only make it worse, and then you get hooked on the medications.

for temporary relief u can take some tranqualiser,but permanent tratment is meditation. I had a serious problem with anxiety and no money to see the Doc. But as I studied on the Internet, I noticed that Diphenhydramine was good as a central nervous system relaxer, commonly given to people who suffer from Parkinson's or Alzheimer's decease but in higher doses. So do not worry about taking small doses especially before bedtime, although if you truly suffer from this problem you can take it during the day and find relief and not cause you drowsiness. You can find it in (Sominex) sleeping pills at stores like Wal Mart or others, or even buy a generic brand that has Diphenhydramine for a very low price. Remember though during the day take only small doses like, one pill every 6 to 8 hours only.
