What is Anxiety?

Anxiety is a common but often misunderstood mental health condition. While occasional anxiety is a natural response to everyday situations or life stressors, chronic or extreme anxiety may signal a deeper issue such as generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or post-traumatic stress disorder. Left untreated, anxiety can interfere with work, relationships, and overall well-being.

Many individuals with anxiety also struggle with co-occurring issues like depressive disorder, bipolar disorder, body dysmorphic disorder, hoarding disorder, attention deficit disorders, or substance use disorders. Understanding these overlapping challenges is crucial to providing effective coping strategies and lasting relief.
