Just try to have fun, don’t let a game give you anxiety. Trust me I have anxiety too but you learn to control it.

I got to 1799.
Then tried pugging for groups to get 1800.
I’m now at like 1724.
I hurt inside.

I’m probably the quietest person who has consistently played at high mmr. I keep my mic muted unless I’m watching a base or playing with people I’m super comfortable with. Always been that way but my anxiety is more so social anxiety.

Those cause mayhem on your GABA system and the response is horrible.

That’s only if you take it for too many weeks in a row. There are better options, but for emergency panic attacks, (emergencies I said) they are the best. By far. Say if you found out your father just died in a car accident for example, or your bank account says negative 500 dollars, you’re NOT going to want to get high on THC for help. Only a b*nzO would help. Something chronic and long-lasting, you’ll wanna ask your doctor for Tegretol.

Rated isn’t fun to me but blizz said that’s where you have to go to get the gear to have fun in casual pvp so thats where I’m going. Severe chills and shake hands eveey time. So fun!
I’d either not play or try non max level pvp.

TBH mate just do it more.
I remember back when I first started quing for rated arenas I would get similar, maybe not full on anxiety attack, but my adrenaline would spike like crazy as soon as the gates opened and after every game my hands would be shaking. I 1000% made mistakes I shouldn’t have because of that, and getting rid of that just comes with more games qued. Eventually quing up rated will feel normal.
I think that’s pretty normal tbh, the first progression raid I ever set foot in was similar, tho to a lesser extent. When you’re in a relatively new environment, with high stakes, it tends to make you feel that way in my experience. Nothing will get rid of that but time doing said thing.

i have anxiety during arenas because its so fast paced lol, i get overstimmed. but i also have social anxiety so maybe it ties into it.
just remember its just a game, nothing that happens in game affects your real life.
You mean all the people that threaten to have their uncle hack my IP isn’t going to affect me?
I self medicate 
Helps my anxiety quite a bit.
Sounds like you just need a short break from rated pvp.
The pressure will hopefully go away after you spend more time queueing games and get used to it.
