Anxiety can look different from person to person. You may overthink everything, expect the worst, or feel like your mind won’t slow down. Some people feel irritable or easily overwhelmed.
Others avoid certain places, situations, or conversations because they fear what might happen. Anxiety can also affect your body. Headaches, fatigue, stomach problems, sweating, and a sense of panic can all come with it.
The most common form of anxiety is generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), which causes stress and worry in multiple areas. In contrast, phobias focus on a specific object or experience, such as spiders or flying. Another common problem is social anxiety disorder, a phobia focused on interacting with others.
These symptoms are real, and they can take a toll on your emotional and physical well-being.
