How do you deal with constant anxiety? - Anxiety Message Board

Hello everyone, I am new here and have a question.
How do you deal with constant anxiety? I mean all the time, it is there all the time and I can't seem to get rid of it! I constantly worry about everything, panic attaks, pulse rates, heart attacks I mean everything you can think of.
I am constantly taking my pulse and it (when not having an attack alway's around 60-80) alway's seems fine. I have been put on a heart monitor, had several EKG's and had an echocardigram. Every thing is normal. My blood pressure alway's run's either perfect 120/80 or 110/66. Today, though my pulse rate was down to like 54 while smoking a ciggerette ( I know that it is bad and trying to stop) doesn't that seem a little low? I just am alway's worrying about something.

Does anyone have any advice about this?
HELP!
