What is it?
Anxiety is a feeling of apprehension or fear that lingers. The source for this uneasiness is not always known or recognized which adds to the distress.

Do you worry all the time? Read the following descriptions and make a mental note if you have answered yes to one or more of them.

While a certain level of stress is necessary to avoid boredom, high levels of stress over a sustained period can damage your health.

None of these coping strategies are new. They are common sense techniques for reducing stress that we all know, but sometimes it helps to be reminded of them.

DEFINITION
