Keep Calm & Carry On With Anxiety:

The Gaspar’s Best Guide to Anxiety

Experiencing occasional anxiety is a normal part of life for many people. However, people with anxiety disorders frequently have excessive, intense, and persistent worry and fear about everyday situations. Often, anxiety disorders involve repeated episodes of sudden feelings of intense anxiety and fear or terror that reach a peak within minutes (panic attacks). While the most critical step towards lowering your anxiety takes in the mind, there are still plenty of steps one can take to improve their anxiety.

Anxiety Health Is Critical

Most people experience stress and anxiety at some point in their lives. Depending on the level of severity, they can detrimentally impact one’s quality of life. Although stress and anxiety share many of the same emotional and physical symptoms – uneasiness, tension, headaches, high blood pressure, and loss of sleep – they have very different origins. Determining which one you’re experiencing is critical to finding an effective treatment plan and feeling better.

  • Experiencing gastrointestinal (GI) problems

  • Having an increased heart rate

  • Stress in a personal relationship such as marriage
  • Stress from global occurrences or political issues
  • Stress from unpredictable or uncertain world events, like a pandemic
