Chosen Answer:
Below are some proven methods you can use to reduce or eliminate anxiety:
a) Meditation is proven to help reduce anxiety and is also not difficult to learn. 10 minutes a day is all that is required to help calm your mind
b) Self Hypnosis: You should buy a good book on this and learn self hypnosis
c) Repeating Positive Affirmations: The best time to do this is at night before bed or in the morning when you wake up. About 7 to 8 minutes is all you need.
d) Try to learn the root cause of your anxiety. For example I use to be scared of the dark, and learned I was accidentally locked in a dark basement as a child. As soon as I learned this my fear of the dark immediately went away.

We can also balance our stress levels to avoid being thrown off-center too easily or often. Ongoing stress management techniques for creating balance include sleeping well, eating healthy foods, exercising, meditating &/or focusing on the positive things in our lives. These are simple and inexpensive ways to relieve pressure, especially when we’re faced with unexpected events or must manage stress over a long period of time.

Your blood pressure can also rise when you are under stress or anxious. So managing your anxiety can also help lower down your blood pressure. You can try to pinpoint the cause of your stress or anxiety and avoid it. Anxiety and stress are usually caused by specific stimulus in the environment, avoiding it can definitely keep you stress-free. Taking medications like Paxil and other drugs does not help in getting rid of your anxiety. Drugs like Paxil can only minimize the symptoms but doesn’t cure anxiety. There are even cases of severe side effects associated with Paxil.
