Anxiety is more than just feeling stressed or worried every now and then. While stress and anxious feelings are a common response to a situation where we feel under pressure, they usually pass once the stressful situation has passed, or the ‘stressor’ has been removed. However, those with anxiety disorders often feel the mental and physical effects of anxious thoughts long after a stressful situation has been resolved. Make sure you or your mates check in with a professional to make sure you are keeping on top of any anxious thoughts.
