Aimless,
Since you said that you have super anxiety and get stressed out a lot. Here are my recommendations:
Get a prescription for Xanax (I'm on this, because of anxiety and it works like a charm)
Have PERSONAL TIME - time just for you, to do something to pamper yourself or just relax
Unwind at the end of the day with NO TV, and NO LIGHTS. Put on some Miles Davis (Kind of Blue) or similar relaxing jazz music with all the lights out, and lay on your couch or in a recliner with your eyes shut. You can listen to other music, but just make it something soothing or relaxing. Burn some candles or incense while doing this too, it really helps.
Go for a massage or if your boyfriend is good at it, have him give you one
Get a hobby, something to take your mind off the day, and something that you can see accomplishment

I do all these things, plus my girlfriend and I like to drink wine together too, but seeing as you're just 20, I won't recommend that. If you do drink, never try to "drink your troubles away", that only makes things worse in the long run.
As a kid, I always had massive anxiety, and no one really understood it, they always thought I just worried too much. But really it can be a severe handicap for people that have it. I get nervous in social situations where I don't know anyone, or if I'm around people that I dislike, or if I've had an exceptionally bad day at work, OR if I have to deal with JW issues / JW family, then I just pop a Xanax. Its been a wonderful thing for me. I try to do everything else to relax first, but if that doesn't work, then I get out my pills.
