I still get anxious sometimes, and the thing that helped most, back when I had to stop going to university because of anxiety, was therapy.
And what I got out of therapy was techniques to kind of step back when I feel anxious, and to realize that the problems I have cannot be solved now, when I am lying in bed at 3am. That every step towards a goal is progress, and that I wont die and lose everything because of one day where things don't go how I hoped. Anxiety makes all problems immediate and life destroying. Most problems aren't.
But, that recognition isn't always there for me. What made it mostly there for me was therapy.
