I controlled this with klonopin or valium, but as I got use to the dose, I no longer needed to take either one. I titrated very slowly because of the anxiety effects; I stayed a week at 100, a week at 200, etc. I think if you hang in there, you will adjust to it.
And you're right. I don't imagine living in NYC is reducing your anxiety a bit. :-(
