Anxiety

Anxiety is a common emotional response to stress or perceived threats. It can manifest as excessive worry, restlessness, and physical symptoms like a rapid heartbeat. Anxiety disorders, such as generalized anxiety disorder and social anxiety disorder, involve chronic and heightened levels of anxiety that can interfere with daily life. Recognizing the nature of anxiety can help individuals better manage their emotions and seek appropriate support if needed.

Anxiety is a natural response to stress and perceived threats, and everyone experiences it to some degree. Anxiety disorders involve an intensified and persistent experience of anxiety. It’s important to remember that anxiety disorders are not a sign of weakness but rather a variation in the way individuals process stress and uncertainty.
