I need some tips for pvp, and how to try to keep relaxed.

Hi, sorry to bother peoples time with reading, I wanted to know if there are some ways to help me improve in crucible and Gambit? (Invading/dealing with invaders), I am just going to say, I'm not good, nor able to improve very well, not because of a meta, not because of matchmaking or what other excuses there is. I honestly do what to improve, there are some really amazing looking weapons that I've really wanted to get (mostly the trio-of hand cannons, I love the gunplay of last word.) But the problem is, is that I just can't seem to get in kills, it took me 2 matches to get [b]ONE [/b] percent on the thorn's kill with void hand cannons quest. I find it really hard to not panic whenever I see an enemy, (I have anxiety when it comes to being pressured, and being pressured with players all over scare me) Is there anything I can do in terms of tips and or practice to help me? Anything that could assist me or teach me would be really helpful, thank you. I hope you are currently having a good day!

    Honestly not sure can give accurate advice for the anxiety issues since it's not something I got personal experience in. But maybe you're imagining the pressure because the pvp scenarios aren't something you're yet completely used to? And I don't mean imagining as in a degratory way, simply in the fact that any pressure you feel really only does exist inside your head. Anxiety usually means lack of confidence. Confidence can be built by establishing control over the situation. Feeling in control becomes easier when you break down and rationalize what's happening so you understand it. To begin rationalizing, instead of feeling down / defeated when killed instead ask yourself why did I die. There's[b] always [/b]an answer that's not the fault of your opponent; Did I miss a shot, did I not make my opponent miss his shot, was I out in the open being shot by more than 1 opponent, did I engage without full health, did I not disengage soon enough, was I too far out of cover to get back in fast enough, was my loadout bad for the engagement? And on and on. There's always a reason. Ask the question after every death. Take the moment to answer it. The more you do it the easier the answers become. And when you're aware of your mistakes you can fix them. Think what you could've done differently to change the result. Now you're learning and improving regardless of losing the engagements & matches. You're in control. Winning / losing doesn't matter. The scoreboard doesn't matter. KDA's irrelevant. Learning and improving makes all the difference long-term and can be done regardless of the engagement & match results.
