欧博百家乐What Anxiety Feels Like: Symptoms and Coping
It’s natural to feel anxiety every now and then, such as before giving a presentation or going out on a first date. But for some people, especially those with anxiety disorders, anxiety is more frequent and can interfere with someone’s ability to live their life.
One of the common features of many anxiety disorders is frequent and persistent anxiety. Occasionally, this anxiety can lead to anxiety or panic attacks. Here’s what anxiety and panic attacks may feel like:
Anxiety attack: Usually builds up gradually and feels like a general increase in anxiety. If you’re having an anxiety attack, you might feel on edge or irritable, and have trouble with activities like eating or sleeping.
Panic attack: Comes on more quickly and feels like a sudden, intense feeling of panic. When you’re experiencing a panic attack, it can cause symptoms like a racing heart, trouble breathing, and even feeling detached from yourself or the world.
If you’ve been experiencing anxiety that makes it hard to function, including frequent anxiety or panic attacks, consider reaching out to your doctor or a mental health professional to discuss your concerns. You can also find more helpful resources on anxiety at our anxiety hub.
