Anxiety Disorders

Feeling anxious sometimes is a normal part of life. We all experience it, and in small doses, it can even be helpful, like a little alarm that keeps us safe and focused.

But for some, anxiety becomes overwhelming. It’s more than just a passing feeling; it’s a constant, heavy burden of fear and worry. This is what we call an anxiety disorder, and it affects so many of us – nearly 30% of adults at some point. It can make everyday life feel like a struggle, making it hard to work, study, or even connect with loved ones. Imagine the constant worry, the fear that holds you back from doing the things you want to do.

The good news is, anxiety disorders are treatable. With the right support and therapy, most people can learn to manage their anxiety and live full, happy lives. There’s hope, and there’s help available. You don’t have to face this alone.

There are different types of anxiety disorders, such as: Generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social anxiety disorder.
