At Tender Health & Wellness, we understand that anxiety can be overwhelming, exhausting, and sometimes isolating. While it is a natural human response to stress, designed to keep us alert and safe, anxiety can become a problem when it is constant, intense, or begins to interfere with daily life. The good news is that anxiety is highly treatable, and with the right support, you can regain control and feel more at peace.

Signs and Symptoms
Anxiety can affect people in many ways. You might notice persistent worry or dread about everyday situations, difficulty concentrating, restlessness, or feeling constantly “on edge.” Physical symptoms such as a rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, stomach discomfort, trembling, or difficulty sleeping are also common. These feelings can arise from specific situations or appear without any clear cause, making them all the more distressing.

Types of Anxiety Disorders
There are several types of anxiety disorders. Generalized Anxiety Disorder involves ongoing, excessive worry about different areas of life. Panic Disorder is marked by sudden, intense episodes of fear known as panic attacks. Social Anxiety Disorder causes deep fear and avoidance of social situations, while specific phobias involve strong fears of certain objects or situations. Each person’s experience is unique, but all forms of anxiety can have a significant impact on well-being.

Causes and Risk Factors
Anxiety can develop from a combination of factors including genetics, brain chemistry, personality traits, past trauma, or ongoing stress. Understanding these factors can help in finding the most effective treatment approach.
