Anxiety refers to a normal and often necessary response to stress or perceived threats, characterized by feelings of apprehension, worry, or unease. While occasional anxiety is a common part of life, excessive or prolonged anxiety that interferes with daily functioning may indicate an anxiety disorder. These disorders can manifest in various ways, such as Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, or specific phobias. Treatment for anxiety disorders may include therapy, medication, lifestyle changes, and other supportive interventions.
