Anxiety

Anxiety often has many different forms for many different people. Small amounts of anxiety are considered very normal for everyone, especially in moments of intensity and stress. However, excessive, ongoing anxiety and feelings of worry that are difficult to control and interfere with your day-to-day life may be a sign of something larger.

It is important to note that anxiety disorders can be present in both children and adults. Those that struggle with an anxiety disorder often describe symptoms that are similar to panic attacks, obsessive-compulsive disorder and other types of anxiety, but they're all considered different conditions.

Living with an anxiety disorder can be a long-term challenge. In some instances, it occurs along with other anxiety or mood disorders. Nevertheless, most anxiety can be improved with psychotherapy or medications. Making lifestyle changes, learning coping skills and using relaxation techniques have also been documented as helpful.
