Understanding Anxiety.
Anxiety can look different for everyone. Common signs include:
- Racing thoughts or constant “what if” thinking
- Difficulty sleeping or relaxing
- Physical symptoms like a pounding heart, sweating, tight chest or nausea
- Avoidance of situations that feel overwhelming
- Feeling tense, restless or easily startled
Anxiety isn’t simply “nerves.” It’s the body’s alarm system working on overdrive. Therapy helps adults recognise what fuels anxiety and develop healthier ways of responding.
