What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is a natural response to stress, characterized by feelings of fear, worry, or unease about future events or uncertain situations. While it’s normal to feel anxious occasionally—such as before an important exam, job interview, or significant life event—persistent or excessive anxiety may indicate an anxiety disorder.
How Does Anxiety Feel?
Anxiety can manifest in many ways, affecting both the mind and body. Common experiences include:
- Emotional Symptoms: Fear, worry, dread, or a sense of impending doom.
- Physical Symptoms: Racing heart, sweating, restlessness, or muscle tension.
- Cognitive Symptoms: Overthinking, difficulty concentrating, or catastrophic thinking.
- Behavioral Symptoms: Avoidance of situations that trigger anxiety, social withdrawal, or compulsive behaviors.
When is Anxiety a Problem?
Anxiety becomes a concern when:
- It is persistent and lasts for weeks, months, or longer.
- It is excessive, going beyond what is appropriate for the situation.
- It impacts daily life, interfering with relationships, work, or personal well-being.
Anxiety can take various forms, each with unique challenges. Here are the most common types of anxiety disorders:
- Generalized Anxiety: Persistent and excessive worry about everyday situations.
- Social Anxiety: Fear of judgment, embarrassment, or social interactions.
- Health Anxiety: Preoccupation with health and misinterpretation of symptoms.
- Substance-Induced Anxiety: Anxiety directly linked to substance use.
- Separation Anxiety: Fear of separation from loved ones and worry about their safety.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety involves intense fear and discomfort in social situations. It can significantly impact relationships and day-to-day interactions.
Symptoms:
- Fear of judgment or criticism
- Catastrophic thinking and negative self-perception
- Embarrassment or shame
- Panic in social situations
- Social withdrawal and difficulty establishing relationships
Health Anxiety
Health anxiety leads to excessive worry about physical well-being, often accompanied by misinterpretation of bodily sensations.

- Preoccupation with health and catastrophic thinking

- Somatic symptoms (e.g., headaches, fatigue)

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Generalized anxiety involves persistent worry and tension about various aspects of life, often without a clear cause.

- Excessive worrying about multiple topics
- Restlessness or feeling “on edge”

Substance-Induced Anxiety Disorder
Anxiety symptoms in this disorder are directly linked to the use of substances, including alcohol or drugs.
Characteristics:
- Panic, restlessness, and excessive worry
- Agitation and other anxiety-related symptoms exacerbated by substance use

This type of anxiety primarily affects children but can also occur in adults. It involves an overwhelming fear of being separated from loved ones.
