Anxiety Disorder & its Treatment

 What is Anxiety Disorder

Anxiety is a general term for several disorders that cause nervousness,

fear, apprehension, and worrying. These disorders affect how we feel and
behave and can cause physical symptoms. Anxiety disorders involve more
than temporary worry or fear. For a person with an anxiety disorder, the
anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time. The feelings can
interfere with daily activities such as job performance, school work, and
relationships. There are several different types of anxiety disorders.
Examples include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and social
