I suffered for a couple of decades: anxiety, random panic. I was able to address them by following the following:
1. Have things to look forward to.
2. Pay attention to nutrition, health, rest, breathing, exercise.
3. Meditate. Socialize.
4. Occasionally when anxiety grows, breathe, visualize yourself performing a repetitive yet fun activity (like swimming laps, chopping vegetables.. whatever takes focus). Your heart rate will drop and things will calm down.
Sometimes when your heart is racing, it's possible you just have pent up energy and you need to crank out some pushups and squats at 3am. Such is life.
