People with anxiety disorders feel worry and fear constantly, and these feelings of distress can severely impact their daily lives. In these situations, we can attribute these feelings to an anxiety disorder. Everyday situations like a test, speaking in public, or attending a party can also trigger a similar “fight or flight” response that feels overwhelming and may take several hours, days, or weeks to subside. A faster heartbeat, sweating, and increased sensitivity are just a few ways our body responds to the increased adrenaline rush in our minds, triggering our need to “fight or flee” from our immediate threat.īut what if you experience these symptoms constantly or intensely - even without a present danger? In modern society, it’s common for our anxieties to revolve around work, money, family, health and other pressing issues that require our daily vigilance. When faced with potentially harmful situations or worrying triggers, our “nerves” become the warning signs we need to navigate the dangers around us. It’s normal to feel anxious occasionally.
