Understanding Anxiety: Signs, Symptoms, and When to Seek Help
Introduction:
Anxiety is a normal part of life, but when it starts interfering with your daily activities, it might be time to pay closer attention. Understanding the signs and symptoms of anxiety can empower you to take steps toward relief and healing.
What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is your body’s natural response to stress or danger, often referred to as the "fight or flight" response. While occasional anxiety is normal, persistent and excessive worry may indicate an anxiety disorder.
Common Signs of Anxiety:
Constant feelings of nervousness or tension
Difficulty concentrating or overthinking
Physical symptoms like rapid heartbeat, sweating, or nausea
Trouble sleeping due to racing thoughts
Avoiding situations that trigger fear or worry
When to Seek Help:
If anxiety prevents you from enjoying life, pursuing therapy can be a transformative step. A licensed therapist can help you identify triggers, develop coping mechanisms, and regain control.
