Rest, sleep are lifestyle issues and will help with general health. Anxiety is better addressed more directly with meditation and relaxation strategies.
Sleep is helpful for overalll health. In order to target anxiety, relaxation skills, meditation, and massage are helpful. I would also recommend outpatient treatment with a cognitive behavioral psychologist.
Yes, it does because when you get adequate sleep you are less irritable, which will in turn make you less anxious.
