How to make anxiety go away.?

If it's really bad, you could talk to your doctor and he could give you something to take the edge off. I'm not really sure how I do it. I just take a long deep breath, and just do it, like pretending that I'm not afraid at all. After a while, I don't have to pretend anymore.

Avoid drugs if at all possible, try Yoga first and meditation.  They are both great for chilling out...;

Talk to your doctor about your anxiety.  There are several medications on the market that can control the symptoms and allow you to have a normal life.  Your doctor may even have a suggestion for a therapist you can work with to learn to modify your reactions to the anxiety.  If your doctor doesn't have a suggestion ... open the phone and start calling therapists, counselors, social workers, psychologists and psychiatrists until you find one that works with anxiety-related problems.\n\nSome of the things you can try on your own are:\n\n#1 -- Start journaling, if you don't already.  Carry a notebook with you and jot down all of your random thoughts and fears in the notebook, especially when you start to get the anxious feelings.  Abuse the heck out of the notebook instead of yourself.  Then once a day or once a week (or even never), whenever you are in a safe place that you don't have anxiety symptoms -- read back through what you've written to see if you can find the source of your anxiety.  Work on that source.\n\n#2 -- Turn off the voice in your head.  I know that sounds silly, but that's exactly what I had to do when my anxiety was/is out-of-control.  I literally lock myself in my car or a bathroom stall or my bedroom and I tell the voice:  "Shut-up!  You are lying.  I am _____ (a positive angle for whatever your particular anxiety is)."  Repeat your new-found mantra as often as you want to turn off the voice in your head.  That voice is still there and it still talks to me, but I don't have to listen to its lies.  :)\n\nGood luck!

That depends on what is causing it.  If something in your life is causing it, you need to address the cause, a therapist can help with this.  If its caused by a chemical imbalance in the brain, therapy can also help along with medications.  Either cause is not fun that's for sure, I have been living with an anxiety disorder for 30 yrs.  I have have used both therapy and medications. The medications have worked best for me.  Make an appointment with your doctor there are also some diseases that can cause anxiety such as a thyroid problem.  Once a physical cause has been ruled out then your doctor will know how to treat you or if you may need to see a therapis or psychiatrist.  In the mean time try relaxation techniques such as deep breathing exercises and meditation.  Stay away from anything that contains caffeine and sugar.  Good luck

try taking something safe over the counter like Tylenol PM.. I have panic attacks too.. you need to be put on like Prozac or Paxil.. something that will cure it long term.. My doctor has me on Lorezapam and it definitely takes the anxiety off like in 15 minutes.. BUT I have become addicted to it which is not good and trying to ween my way off of it.. the prozac/paxil should help with all of it in the long run.. I would suggest asking the doc for Lorezapam only for like a month until the Prozac kicks in... it works wonders.... it makes you a little tired until you get use to it..but sounds like that would be perfect for you...

I have had panic attacks also and I have an anxiety disorder.  I think that if you work on it that you can make it completely go away.  I am getting over mine and I have the same problem that you have where it is less and less but not completely gone.  \n\nYou could try medication and then eventually stop.  That might be just the thing you need to make it completely stop.

It depends on your level of anxiety. If it is minor, exercise, mediate, see a therapist. If you have horrible panic attacks (like I did) you need to take some medication to get your mind straight so you can work on the issues that are causing your anxiety with a therapist.\nGood luck sweetie!

Two words.  LOT LIZARDS.  That should relieve some stress.  Or you could try those breathing exercises.  Take 3 deep breaths and hold for 3 seconds and keep doing it until you feel better.

I get anxiety attacks all the time, and I refuse to take medication for it, so I started going to a counselor for it. Here's what she told me... and it works really well.  Every night before you go to bed (or once a day) relax your whole body.  Start at your neck/shoulders and work your way down to your toes.  First, tense up your muscles for 5 seconds, and then relax for 5 seconds, breathing deeply throught the whole thing.  Do each body part seperately.  If you do this every day for 30 days you will automatically start doing it.  So then every time you get an anxiety attack,  instead of freaking out and tensing up,  your body will relax and you'll stay more calm.

I quit after 33 yrs. IT CAN BE DONE..  Talk to your doctor about helping you.  I took something for anti-anxiety.  It really helped me.  I just took it about 4 months, but it worth it.  I have been quit for 15 months.

It will lessen over time, other proven ways to lessen anxiety, is to exercise (doesn't have to be full blown going to gym things), like a brisk walk for a mile. Make sure your eating habits are good, try to cut as much caffeine out as possible. Chamomile tea is excellent for helping, although some people don't like hot tea.\nCongrats on 6 mos, remember one day at a time.

First I have to say..Anxiety really Sucks!!\nI had a problem with anxiety and didnt want to take meds.\nLots of Prayer and the below listed therapies worked for me.\nStay strong you can overcome this without meds, your brain can be retrained to handle things differently so you wont panic. I will take alot of work on your part but most worthwhile things in life do require hardwork.\n   God Bless And Good luck..\n  If you need any more info you cant contact me through my yahoo 360 page, link located on profile..\n\nCognitive Behavioural Therapy:\n\nWhat is CBT?\nIt is a way of talking about: \nHow you think about yourself, the world and other people \nHow what you do affects your thoughts and feelings. \nCBT can help you to change how you think ("Cognitive") and what you do ("Behaviour)". These changes can help you to feel better. Unlike some of the other talking treatments, it focuses on the "here and now" problems and difficulties. Instead of focussing on the causes of your distress or symptoms in the past, it looks for ways to improve your state of mind now.\n\nIt has been found to be helpful in:\n- Anxiety\n- Depression\n- Panic\n- Agoraphobia and other phobias\n- Social phobia \n- Bulimia\n- Obsessive compulsive disorder\n- Post traumatic stress disorder\n- Schizophrenia \n\nHow does it work?\n\nCBT can help you to make sense of overwhelming problems by breaking them down into smaller parts. This makes it easier to see how they are connected and how they affect you. These parts are:\n\nA Situation - a problem, event or difficult situation\nFrom this can follow: \nThoughts \nEmotions \nPhysical feelings \nActions \nEach of these areas can affect the others. How you think about a problem can affect how you feel physically and emotionally. It can also alter what you do about it. \n\n\nEMDR:\nEye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)1 integrates elements of many effective psychotherapies in structured protocols that are designed to maximize treatment effects. These include psychodynamic, cognitive behavioral, interpersonal, experiential, and body-centered therapies2. EMDR is an information processing therapy and uses an eight phase approach.

I had anxiety problems once in awhile and I just told a doctor. He gave me medication for any time the feeling accured. I also learned that when I had anxiety attacks, which wasnt often, to breathe in a paper bag for awhile. The carbon dioxide you breathe in, with less oxyagen in you system calms you down. Hope I helped you out. advise, see a doctor for sure.
