Anxiety

Anxiety is an overarching term to describe thoughts and feelings of worry, nervousness, and apprehension. It is often experienced not only mentally and emotionally, but with a strong physical component. People struggling with anxiety may feel excessively worried about events that may occur in the near or distant future and may find it hard to focus on anything else. In other cases, people with anxiety may feel overwhelmed with a constant array of worries or fears. Anxiety can cause physical symptoms, including increased heart rate, fast breathing or sweating. 

Anxiety can take a number of different forms, including generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety, and panic disorder, to name a few. In any case, the experience of anxiety is overwhelming and troubling. Anxiety may feel isolating or debilitating at times, but is the most common of all mental disorders. If you think you may have some form of anxiety, you are not alone. A therapist can help you determine what you may be experiencing, and offer personalized care and treatment suggestions.
