Importance of Addressing Anxiety
Anxiety is a common mental health issue that can significantly impact an individual's daily functioning and overall quality of life. It is crucial to distinguish between normal anxiety and generalized anxiety disorder, which persists over a longer duration and affects various aspects of life. Patients may present with anxiety symptoms often related to stressors in their environment, but it is essential to evaluate the longevity and severity of these symptoms to determine an appropriate diagnosis.
