Every one of us experiences stress in our day to day life. Anxiety is a normal reaction to some uncertain event that gives rise to a feeling of worry, nervousness, or concern. Anything from our daily responsibilities can become a reason for our anxious behaviour from family and work to serious life situations. Some amount of anxiety is considered normal for our body as they keep us vigilant and prepared for unprecedented situations. But, for some individuals, the intensity of anxiety reaches alarming levels that can exhibit adverse effects on physical as well as mental health.
Chronic anxiety leads to serious anxiety disorders that need to be treated. Anxiety disorders can badly interfere with normal life activities. Before going forward, I would like to throw some light on the major effects chronic anxiety has on our body:
