What is anxiety?
Everyone feels anxious once in a while. Worry and fear are normal emotions, but when intense nervousness and fear interfere with your ability to perform daily activities or enjoy socializing, it can indicate the presence of an anxiety disorder.
There are several types of anxiety disorders. Social anxiety disorder involves fear around interpersonal interactions, while specific phobias include fear of a particular thing, like flying on a plane or spiders.
Generalized anxiety disorder, the most common type of anxiety disorder, doesn’t arise from one apparent cause. Instead, it leads to intense, ongoing feelings of anxiety that affect almost every aspect of your life.
How can I tell if I have anxiety?
When you have anxiety, the feelings of worry and fear never really go away. These emotions begin to take a toll on the way you relate to the world, including your school or work performance, personal relationships, and everyday responsibilities.
Signs and symptoms, symptoms of anxiety include:
- Irritability
- Agitation
- Difficulty concentrating
- Trouble sleeping
- Rapid heart rate
- Shortness of breath
- Sweating, trembling or shaking
- Digestive problems
Anxiety affects your self-esteem and confidence. It puts you at risk for other mental health conditions, like depression. Over time, anxiety can lead to physical health issues and puts you at a higher risk for heart disease, gastrointestinal disorders, and chronic respiratory conditions.
