Does Anxiety Play a Large Part in Your Life?

Sleeping, eating, working, going certain places and relationships could be suffering due to anxiety.

Having difficulty sleeping? Are you overeating or eating unhealthy foods? Are you an underachiever at work due to fear of humiliation or failure? Do you yearn for a healthy, fulfilling intimate relationship? These are all issues experienced by those suffering with anxiety.

Most of us experience anxiety in our lives. We may feel anxious prior to a work or school presentation. That is a normal role anxiety may play in our lives. However, when anxiety persists and interferes with our lives it is time to seek help.

Anxiety does not have to govern your responses to life any longer. It can learn to be managed.
