Hi Deedee82

As a quickfire response with some points;

Knowing you have anxiety issues and looking for ways to manage it is a great start.

Seeing your GP regularly is good, you may be eligible for 10 free visits to a Psychologist as well to talk to about your situation, things that you have noticed make the anxiety worse or better and to work through any issues you might uncover.

A diary can help, it doesn't have to be a book, but something you can record good and bad days in, reflect and see how the month before went etc.
