Depends on what school treatment you’re trying to implement.
In metacognitive therapy you learn to live with the feelings of anxiety. To get used to them, that they aren’t dangerous. When I went through it it reminded me of exposure therapy, but to anxiety and negative outlooks/triggers.
This is of course only one of the many different schools of treatment. Where metacognitive focuses on acknowledging and existing with triggers, cognitive therapy can focus on identifying the train of thought leading to anxiety, and interrupting it before it leads to anxiety.
In any case it’s not something you’d want to attempt on your own or without consulting a mental health specialist, psychologist, psychiatrist, what have you.
Also you have to find the approach that’s right for you, and be prepared that getting a handle on anxiety might be a long and cumbersome journey.

Ah, the classic “lets crank all the sliders as far to one side as they can go”. The refined man’s character creation. 🤌
When last I changed jobs (going from full time in house software developer to a consultant working for a firm), and every time I’ve changed assignments since (same firm, most times same client but different teams), I’ve been absolutely knackered. It can even happen once you’re back from a particularly long vacation.
Sometimes for a week, sometimes for up to a month.
It does pass though. You’ll find you have more energy as you get settled. Remember, new people to relate to, new things to do (even if it is similar tasks as previously) does take up a lot of mental energy even if you don’t feel like it does.
Cut yourself some slack, give your mind and body time to adjust for a few weeks. Remember to eat and drink right, and afford yourself some extra down time. In my experience you’ll be acclimatised soon enough.
Congrats on your new job!
Waiting does indeed an effort, however, has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
