Identifying and Coping with Anxiety Symptoms

Anxiety symptoms can manifest as excessive worry, restlessness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, irritability, muscle tension, and sleep disturbances. Clinical anxiety is characterized by ongoing and uncontrollable worry that affects daily functioning. To manage anxiety, therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) and eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR), can be beneficial. Other strategies, like journaling, mindfulness meditation, regular exercise, and supplements like omega-3s and magnesium, may also help. It's important to acknowledge your feelings, be kind to yourself, and allocate time for relaxation and self-care.
