cognitive therapy, meditation, excercise such as walking.

Positive thinking, intellectualization or being able to research the type of anxiety you have and understand it, which is a very proactive approach to dealing with it.

being constructive, and talking to others about it.

the list may be even longer than that. but I suffer from generalized anxiety disorder and those are some of the coping skills I use.

also, if you don't know what kind of anxiety disorder you have, it is crucial to be assesed by a professional.

self-assesments done online might help to.

but I would definitely try to find a psychologist or psychiatrist who would know a little more about the symptoms, causes and treatments.
