Anxiety is a subjective and often unreasonable sense of worry, apprehension, and fear that causes both physical and emotional distress. It is normal to experience some anxiety on occasion, but it is important to distinguish between normal levels of anxiety and unhealthy or pathological levels.*

Anxiety Disorders can affect thinking, decision-making, perceptions of the environment, learning and concentration. Symptoms of severe anxiety may include increased blood pressure and heart rate, gastric intestinal complaints, headaches, and other physical ailments. Research has shown that chronic anxiety may lead to multiple serious medical and psychiatric disorders including immune deficiencies, cardiac diseases, and many others.*
