Anxiety is our body’s response to stress. It’s a feeling of fear or apprehension about what will or might happen. But if the feelings of anxiety are extreme, last for longer than six months, and are interfering with day to day activities, then therapy helps you manage it better. In cases of an anxiety disorder, the feeling of fear may be with you all the time. It is intense and sometimes makes you weak. This type of anxiety may cause you to stop doing things you enjoy. If left untreated, the anxiety will keep getting worse. There are several types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and various phobia-related disorders.
