Anxiety
Anxiety is an emotion characterized by feelings of worry, fear, unease, and apprehension. It is a common psychological phenomenon that affects people of all ages and cultures, although it is more prevalent in females. Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress or potential danger and can help people to recognize potential threats and take protective action. It can also become a disorder when the feelings of anxiety are severe and persistent, impairing daily functioning and quality of life. Anxiety disorders include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, phobias, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder. Treatment of anxiety may involve psychotherapy, medication, or both.
