Ugh i had enough of my current job. So after 4 years im ready for a new one. I havent had a job interview in a long time, so I am kinda.... well really nervous. It's over the phone since the job is across the state near Portland Oregon. If i get it, ill be moving over there. Something I really want to do.... so a lot is on the line here..

Tips to calm myself down????

There is no point in attempting to be anyone but yourself. If that is not what THEY want, then the job is not what you want. Any untruth or stretchy you might say will be a lie for which you have to compensate if you get the job.

BE YOURSELF

Unless you need this new job to pay off your old bills
,there is no reason to worry.

So, just answer everything with complete honesty.

Bon chance!

Since they won't see you, you will have to be sure to speak clearly, and speak up. As Frank said, be yourself. Think positive. Believe in yourself. You can do this. Prayers for you to have a successful interview. Best wishes.

I'm too late to give advise but glad to hear it went well for you. All my interviews in the last 15+ years have been over the phone. I got every job. Just doing what Franc said and be yourself.
