By deep breathing! Try these simple 4 steps: Breath in deeply for a count of 4 Hold for a count of 4 Then breathe out for a count of 4 And hold for a count of 4 (repeat until you feel calm) The reason this works is because we breathe fast and shallow when we?re stressed. By switching to long slow breath - you trigger the nervous system to become calm.

Dear sir, from what is described I understand this could be anxiety. What you require is to learn techniques to manage your anxiety. Since the triggers are clear you only need solution to it. Medicines will do their part but psychotherapy has a different role altogether in curing anxiety. Techniques such as deep breathing, body scan, deep relaxation etc will help ease anxiety I suggest you consult a therapist for your problem.
