Odd, I never had any troubles with Anivia. She was the first champion I bought other than Ryze. Back then, I never played PVP (first few days of playing) but when I bought her after one or two bot matches I played a PVP match with her, the first ever. I got 10/0 and at least one Honourable Opponent. See, as long as you know her mechanics, she is really easy. The main parts are:

Knowing when to wall

Hitting your Q

Making sure you only hit E on a chilled enemy

Cancel your ultimate at the right time

Also, in terms of laning, dont push too much. She can't really without blue as her ultimate is so mana hungry. If you land a stun, follow up with E and an AA or two. You will sh!t on melee champions, with the possible exception of Talon, if you beat them early, especially if you kill them. You have no mobility, but you can still avoid ganks, especially champions with no/unreliable gap closers with your wall, stun, ultimate and passive, which brings me to the next part, the passive.

his will save your ass in many situations and be useless in others. It's not like Karthus' where you should suicide, it's just a guardian angel, which replaces the stasis with a 6 second stun and armor buff/debuff, but get's you to full health. If you are ganked and are not against someone with high knockbacks (Gragas, Lee Sin, even Orianna) then as long as you get to your turret you should be fine. Try and bait enemies that are forgetful of your passive to dive you. They will probably rage quit, especially if you but a wall behind them as they try to escape.
