Anxiety Disorders

Everyone feels anxious at some point in their life because it’s a normal human emotion. We can blame our amygdala for that as it’s a tiny organ in our brain that deals with environmental threat. So if we feel stressed about work, under pressure or worried, anxiety will pop up and say hi. Small doses of anxiety are nothing to worry about as it can prompt us to act. However, anxiety is potentially a problem if it is on-going, intense, out of proportion to what is happening, and interfering with your ability to live your life the way you want.
