Symptoms of anxiety 

Many people mistake tension for simple stress or worry and dismiss it as not a big deal. But it is a big deal, especially if you have an anxiety disorder. Keep reading this article and discover how you can tell if you’re experiencing any form of uneasiness.

Insomnia and restlessness

As a result, it also causes fatigue and contributes to developing chronic medical conditions such as diabetes and heart disease.

Easily irritable 

Generally, people who suffer from apprehension are hyper-vigilant.  This means they are ready to take action in response to perceived threats.  Something viewed as threatening or potentially dangerous by an individual with uneasiness will also feel this way to others close to that individual.  Sometimes a person suffering from this condition can misinterpret what is happening around them and become irritated at another person’s actions when they aren’t threatening or give unwarranted harmful advice or criticism during times of stress and worry, making it harder for the other person to cope.

Unusual worrying 

Anxious people are often aware of an underlying feeling of dread or threat that threatens their well-being. While many people feel worried throughout their lives, the ability to stop worrying is greater for those with this disorder.  When fear  becomes chronic, it can develop into a debilitating condition that impacts a person’s ability to work or socialize, and in some cases, lead to suicide.
