They very well might be, I have used anti anxiety hypnotherapy CDs and they have made it worse, I am sure the unconscious mind takes the message on bored but then your conscious mind tries to undo it... Thus making you feel the way you do.... I would say though, try and get some help for your anxiety... Sounds like your not dealing with it properly, how do I know, because I was the same but then got full blown panic disorder... Life has been pretty ****** the last six years... Try find some help...
