Some strategies are to use relaxation techniques, such as deep breathing.  It might also be helpful to seek out social support.  For instance, if you want to talk to your friends about your anxiety, that could be a great way to help you cope.

Yes, I do the deep breathing, but as far a social support, I am an introvert and social settings actually tend to make me more anxious.
