About

Anxiety is a common mental health condition characterized by excessive worry, fear, and apprehension. It can manifest in various forms, such as generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), social anxiety, panic disorder, and specific phobias. Symptoms often include restlessness, irritability, muscle tension, and difficulty concentrating. While it is a natural response to stress, chronic or overwhelming anxiety can significantly impact daily life and well-being.
