anxiety and the situations you fear

If we feel anxious, we perceive dangers, and we often believe that we are unable to cope with that feared situation.  Often this is a fallacy, and there is little to fear, and we actually have the ability we doubt.
 
The more we avoid a situation, the more anxiety takes whole.  Therapists help people to reduce their anxiety by gradually exposing them to the situations they fear
 
You can read more about managing anxiety by reading one of the following books -

• Jon Kabat Zinn.  Full Catastrophe Living
• ​David Burns.  The Feeling Good Handbook
