If you feel like you can’t turn off your mind at night, have feelings of danger, panic or dread, have difficulty focusing or thinking clearly about anything other than the thing you’re worried about, or are obsessing about certain ideas, you may have anxiety. When these thoughts and feelings interfere with daily activities, it’s time to seek help. Our therapists can help you find relief.
Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress. For example, it’s natural to feel excitement, anxiety, or fear when giving a presentation at work, waiting for important test results, or driving in adverse weather conditions. However, when these feelings persist and disrupt your daily life, reaching out to a therapist or psychiatrist is essential.
Anxiety is felt in many different ways. It may manifest in the mind as excessive worry, or physically through symptoms like difficulty sleeping. Other common symptoms of anxiety include:
- Feeling nervous or restless
- Having an increased heart rate
- Sweating
- Trouble concentrating
- Feeling on edge or irritable
- Muscle tension
