It works by assisting the nervous system achieve balance, alleviating stress and anxiety symptoms. It's been reported that acupuncture can give individual rapid results, often working within only one to two sessions. However, like any treatment, results and the number of sessions will vary from person to person.
You could do acupressure on Liver3 and PC 6. Usually I use at least 10 points to address the whole body issue and gut health for the root reasons of anxiety.

There are many points for anxiety. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.
Yes I do acupuncture for anxiety, I recommend coming in for a consultation so we could discuss a treatment tailored to your needs.
Do meditation and combining with acupuncture, herbs and sometimes massage can help relieve and or treat your anxiety.
Try both ear and scalp massage. Massage your ears vigorously, every part you can. Massage tender spots on your scalp, especially along the midline from hairline to top of head. Lastly, massage the bottoms of your feet in the transverse arch area.
Acupuncture doesn't work with a point for each issue. It is a very complex web of inter-related energy patterns, and anxiety can be caused by any number of energetic reasons. Your acupuncturist will know what to do for your anxiety.
There is not typically a pressure point for anxiety. There are some points that can help for anxiety, such as guanyun, qihai, touwei, zaohai, etc. Where are they? It is hard to tell you, you can ask your acupuncturist if you meet them.
There are several points which can be useful in the treatment of anxiety. The problem here is that I don't know why *you* are experiencing anxiety and therefore couldn't point you in a beneficial direction.
The diagnostic model of Chinese medicine is very different from conventional medicine's model. A condition like "anxiety" that, from the standpoint of conventional medicine, might be monolithic (i.e. they consider it a single thing) could have multiple different causes in the Chinese model. Treatment hangs on accurate diagnosis, without some idea of what the root cause is *for you*, I cannot give you any actionable advice.
Here's what I can do: if you want to try Chinese medicine to address your issue, go to an expert. You can use NCCAOM.org to get a list of local, board certified providers.
