💬 What Is Anxiety — Really?
Anxiety is more than just “nerves.” It’s a constant sense of unease that can affect your:
- Thoughts (racing or intrusive thoughts)
- Body (tight chest, fatigue, restlessness)
- Behavior (avoidance, procrastination)
- Relationships (difficulty expressing or connecting)
⚠️ Common symptoms include:
- Trouble sleeping or relaxing
- Feeling on edge, even without a reason
- Heart palpitations or stomach issues
- Avoiding certain people, places, or tasks
- Fear of “losing control”
🧠 Anxiety isn’t weakness — it’s a sign your system is overwhelmed. The good news? It’s treatable.
