If you relate to work/task anxiety, your perspective on this can help me greatly!

From the past two years I've been noticing that I get very uncomfortable when some specific work is given to me by another person. A task, a submission or a project work. I've procrastinated a lot for my college submissions but last month I was able to slowly sunmit assignments on time by calming myself a little when I started out. Then it came in naturally.
Today my first paid internship task was given : a video editing assignment. It has 2 video edits with a time span of 48 hours. I'm really scared and only now I'm realising and accepting that I have intense work related anxiety. It's part because I bluffed ( very little) about knowing a certain software,, buy that's not really the only reason. I'm scared that I'll fail to get work done on time like earlier times indicating how I'll probably never earn money.
I'm panicking and not able to focus.
Does anyone have any practical advice I could use?
Additional info : I always feel like an imposter despite many people complimenting many of my skills. I know that I have the skills, but at the same time I'm aware that I'm capable of sabotaging myself ( by not doing assignment) because of this intense anxiety
