Anxiety is letting something take control of us and feeling powerless to stop it from doing so. Therefore, there are a couple of ways you could approach it.
You could tell yourself that you won't allow another person to control your actions, which is what is happening right now. She has control. Should she? If she walked out of your life, I'd say no, not anymore. Life has pain, but it isn't stagnant. You need to force yourself to take back your power and move forward with it.
You could totally submit to the anxiety. Scream, cry, yell, punch pillows (a plastic baseball bat works wonders for this). Imagine her face on one of those pillows. Call her every name you can think of. Get angry at allowing all this anxiety to overtake you. Grieve. Then you get dressed, take a deep breath and begin anew. Focus on the good parts of you, not what 'might have been'. Focus on your studies, not who you might see in the halls. Keep busy. Live.
