So what you wrote makes me think that maybe it's my fault and I'm just not trying hard enough...
Sorry, it's not personal but I'm angry now and kind of hate myself.

It's not your fault.
The anxiety can cause a high thought and stress activity, so it may cause you to feel worn out after work.
I can offer mindfulness - accepting those natural feelings when they appear, listening to them, breathing and wait for it to pass a bit.
I can also suggest drinking tea as it can relief stress. Stabillium 200 pills (fish-based) is a natural food additive which greatly helps inner stress! During my high burden moments, when I started taking them, I gradually felt so much relief, it felt like a miracle!
There is also a story about a woman who used running to cope with anixety and anxiety attacks. It could use as great inspiration:
