What is anxiety?
Anxiety is the body's natural response to stress. It becomes a concern when worry, fear or panic is frequent, hard to control, and gets in the way of work, school, sleep or relationships. Anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety, panic and social anxiety, are among the most common mental health conditions and are very treatable.
Common signs
- Persistent worry or overthinking that's hard to switch off
- Restlessness, irritability or feeling on edge
- Trouble sleeping or concentrating
- Racing heart, shortness of breath or tension
- Panic attacks
- Avoiding situations because of fear
Everyone's experience is different. Only a qualified clinician can make a diagnosis.
