Do sports (at home, if you feel more confortable) but 3x 30min/week. Eat more greens, oilseeds, fresh fruits and food rich in magnesium such as: raw spinach, fish, beans, lentils, avocados, brown rice, bananas, figs and chocolate. If you have a pet, cuddle with it more often and take care of it. It will make you shift your focus from anxiety to something else. Try to catch the sun everyday for 10mins. Check your levels of vit D and B12 (adjust with supplements if needed). Yoga, you can find plenty of stuff online. Mindfulness meditation, it’s not hard, stick to it. When you feel anxiety, let it come, don’t fight against it. Take deep breath (inhale for 6 seconds, hold for 2, exhale for 6. Do it again). Just observe how tense and how bad you feel over nothing. Meditation can help to stand back. Sleep enough (7 to 9hours/night). Quit smoking and avoid drinking alcohol. Smile. Smiling, even for nothing, tricks the mind and releases happy hormones. Learn to manage your anxiety, it’s always going to be there because it’s a normal mechanism of protection but don’t let it rule you anymore. You are not alone.

Yes it does, if there is subconscious basis of symptoms, otherwise it won't Problem in India is there are no good hypnotherapist, in most of town Some people even make fool of patient in the name of hypnotherapy, so beware I came across at least 5 patient, where a self proclaimed hypnotherapist suggested patient that this anxiety is due to a molestation attempt in there childhood, Following which the anxiety increased, and in couple of patient there was severe depression with suicidal attempts (we had to admit the patient) Make an informed choice

Yes it may help as other therapies ..like various psychotherapies help.If patient is suggestible, better results follow.But of the these therapies are used as adjuvants.
Next Steps
You can try using it but most of the times , it is generally not used.We use Psychopharmacologies and Psychilogical interventions rather than hypnosis.
Health Tips
You may not find a good hypnosis trained person and only Hypnosis may not be effective in comparison to the present day treatments. Better take the opinion of a psychiatrist for a final diagnosis.
