What Causes Tightness In Upper Back Of Neck?

Hi Doctor,
I'm frequently experiencing a tightness in my upper back of the neck area and it extends all over my lower ear lobes. It feels like tension...My doctor said I'm having anxiety attacks...How do I overcome this annoying feeling? It just comes and goes during the day, even when I'm busy at work. I appreciate your help.
Thank you.
