Anxiety!

Worried-looking hound dog

In professional jargon, anxiety is a mental condition characterized by excessive apprehensiveness or perceived threats. Anxiety frequently leads to avoidance behaviors and often to physical symptoms. These physical symptoms are an increased heart rate and muscle tension.

In layperson’s terms, anxiety is a feeling of worry, nervousness, or unease. It typically concerns an imminent happening or something with an uncertain outcome. Feelings of anxiety can interfere with regular daily activities.

Common anxiety signs and symptoms include:

l Feeling nervous, restless, or tense.

l Having a sense of impending danger, panic, or doom.

l Breathing rapidly and having an increased heart rate.

l Feeling weak, tired, sweating, and trembling.

l Trouble concentrating or thinking about anything other than the present worry.

If these symptoms persist, you should consider reaching out for professional help.
