<human>: I apologize if this is the wrong subreddit for this, but I've been struggling with my productivity my whole life and just realized that anxiety and chronic worrying is having a serious impact on my life.

I work a day job part, take care of our home and animals, and am working on developing my own business.

My fiance and I just had a long and emotional conversation, where I was telling him how stressed out I was about everything going on and I need a period of time without any new projects in my new business where I can focus on the back-end work.  Each time a new project comes along, it just piles on top of the last and I have no foundation for organization, and it keeps snowballing.

He pointed out that I do have the time and just worry too much about everything.  I take everything personally, I keep making excuses, but in reality, I think too much and get scared, and retreat.  I try to relax, and doing mindless activities helps temporarily but I can never get back on track.  And then I realize I got nothing new accomplished and it gets worse and worse.  I think about all the things I need to do that I haven't yet and panic.

I have tried meditation and simply can't shut my brain off.  Exercise works, but I have projects to work on and feel like I don't have the time.  I think for hours and hours and it leads nowhere.  I'm sure many of you are here because of this very same issue.  How do you deal with it?  Are there natural supplements that help?  Does therapy really do anything?  Also, could birth control play a role in any of this?  I haven't always been this way, only the past year or two.

Can you condense the text into a few key points?
<bot>: I've created a world of anxiety by thinking too much about everything all the time and it's getting in the way of life.  How do you stop?
