Understanding Anxiety: Definition and Symptoms

Anxiety is a collection of various psychological and physiological responses to perceived threat or danger. It encompasses psychological responses such as worry, fear, dread, unease, restlessness, racing thoughts, and hyper vigilance. Physiological responses may include perspiration, cold hands and feet, tense muscles, rapid heart rate, shallow breathing, gastrointestinal discomfort, blurred vision, lightheadedness, and tightness in the chest. Anxiety is believed to be an evolved trait that helps us survive by preparing us for potential dangers. Understanding these responses can promote self-compassion and a better ability to cope with anxiety.
