Writing as a release is one of my ways.  I think we've experianced anxiety in one way or another and I think if we're creative people, doing what we like to do helps alot.  There are days when I just sit in my chair and listen to classical music or a film soundtrack and just ride the wave.  Sometimes a good cry helps.
Plus you can always talk to someone.  You've got lots o pals here.  Give me a shout if you need to.
