Anxiety is more than just everyday stress or worry.
It can show up in ways many people do not immediately recognize, like racing thoughts, difficulty sleeping, irritability, or feeling constantly on edge. Sometimes it feels physical. Sometimes it feels emotional. Often, it feels exhausting.
Everyone feels stressed at times, but anxiety tends to be more persistent and harder to control. Understanding the symptoms can help you better recognize what you or others may be experiencing.
