Anxiety is a very common and sometimes healthy reaction when we sense a threat or find ourselves in a worrying situation. It can become a problem when it interferes with our performance or everyday lives.
We can start to feel an overwhelming sense of uneasiness, either generally or in relation to a specific situation. At these times we may experience physical feelings of anxiety including an increased heart rate, difficulty breathing, shakes, dizziness, tightness in the chest, nausea, muscular pain and headaches. Anxiety is often also associated with worrying thoughts, difficulty sleeping and concentrating and a loss of self confidence. You can learn ways to manage and reduce your anxiety within psychology therapy.
