Any certain techniques you have found help with it?
I had (and still do a certain extent) anxiety issues. Mine were / are based around simple self-confidence. The two ways I have deal with this is self-help books to understand that the way I feel is actually just normal (it's the brain) for me and I just need to work around it - understanding how you feel at the time though and why you feel it is incredible.
The other way I have got through my anxiety is plain and simple just doing it. Social situations scare the h*ll out of me. Still do but no where near as bad as they did. I used to literally run away. No more. Deep breaths, calm head, just go in, enjoy myself and stay away from alcohol.
Find a book called Feel The Fear and Do It Anyway ... recommended by my MC. Great book.
There is nothing to fear but fear itself!
Hope it helps a little.
