We must try to get rid of obsessive fears.
Instruction manual
one
Although this is difficult, but try to pull yourself together and think: what is the cause of fear or anxiety? When it first appeared, what was it connected with? What was the impetus, "provoking factor"?

Even if you do not immediately find the answers to these questions, do not lose heart and do not give up. Remember: if you can find the cause, your problem will be close to resolution! After all, the famous author of "Robinson Crusoe" wrote: "What we know less torments us with horror than the omissions and secrets."

If you again feel an attack of fear - try to do the following: write in detail what exactly bothered you, scared; how do you think fear and anxiety can be overcome. If there are several solutions - describe each in detail, do not spare time. It will only benefit.
4
Having chosen the best one from these options, in your opinion, start acting on it. Despite the simplicity of this technique, it is quite effective. The main thing is that by starting to reason, you will not allow fear to completely “possess” you. You yourself will see that he has limits, and that the problem that torments you is not at all so terrible.
5
A very good remedy for fear and anxiety is work! When a person is constantly busy with something, he simply has no time to torment himself with experiences. It is no coincidence that both doctors and psychologists have such a concept: "employment therapy."
6
Try also to "shake oneself", get angry with yourself - they say I'm an adult, independent person, and I behave just like a child! Try to draw on cold logic at the same time. Tell yourself: "Is it better for me that I am constantly afraid of something, nervous? No! Only worse! So what the hell? Enough! I won’t be afraid anymore." Sometimes it helps a lot.

If all of the above methods did not lead to success, then you can not do without the help of qualified specialists.
note
Anxiety or a feeling of fear are often accompanied by insomnia, and are caused, first of all, by excitation of the nervous system. Squeeze your left hand into a fist so that the fingers rest in the middle of the palm. Find the point at which the middle finger rests. Then press firmly on this point with the thumb of your right hand and hold for 1 minute. This will calm the “excitement” of prana and reduce anxiety.
Useful advice
The third method of overcoming anxiety, fear and self-doubt is “spontaneous actions”. When, for example, at work for the upcoming meeting, we plan in advance speech or phrases that we will speak, at this time we are just engaged in “recharging” (potentially excessive) meaning that we will attach to this situation. To get rid of fear and overcome uncertainty - spontaneous actions are sometimes the only way out. If you decide, you just need to do it, not paying attention to the "cramps" of the mind.
