Anxiety is a state of apprehension or worries that nearly often comes with a sense of impending disaster. Most times it involves strong, excessive, and persistent worry over everyday circumstances typically experienced by those with anxiety disorders.
What-ifs appear to plague us continually when we are anxious. “What if something goes wrong?” "What if I don't do well?" " What if they disapprove of me?" Anxiety concerns sometimes entail recurrent episodes of acute anxiety, fear, or terror that spike in a matter of minutes. These episodes become uncomfortable, and hard to regulate and are usually out of proportion to the real threat, interfering with daily activities. When these feelings last for about 6 months, you may be struggling with an anxiety disorder. Seeking help from a mental health professional during this time is crucial to your mental well-being.
