Overview

"The term ""anxiety"" is used to describe a wide range of feelings including apprehension, fear, concern, and nervousness. The vast majority of people will have this reaction to stress or danger at some point in their lives. Individual differences exist in the severity, duration, and presentation of anxiety. Anxiety is a normal and adaptive response that helps people be ready for potential risks or challenges, but it may become problematic and get in the way of daily functioning if it persists for an extended period of time. Restlessness, impatience, difficulty concentrating, muscle tension, racing thoughts, sleep difficulties, and a feeling of impending doom are just some of the physical, emotional, and cognitive symptoms that might result. Excessive and persistent anxiety that severely limits a person's ability to go about their regular life is a hallmark of the anxiety disorders. Separation anxiety disorder, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, particular phobias, and generalized anxiety disorder are all examples of the spectrum of anxiety disorders. Treatment for these conditions typically entails the assistance of a trained medical practitioner and may consist of medication, psychotherapy, or a hybrid of the two. It's important to remember that feeling anxious from time to time is natural, but if your anxiety persists or is severely interfering with your everyday life, it's time to consult a doctor."
