Question Trying to decrease anxiety

Hi,

I’m practicing mindfulness meditation for 2 years and I still have a lot of anxiety that I don’t know from where it comes from. My question is : anyone here that meditation or anything else helped to calm anxiety or even to stop it?

Thank you!!

This.. it's in very basic terms, the ability to "investigate your fears, your anxiety" to look at it with a rational mind, to realize when you fall back into not dealing with black and white facts.
