Anxiety can be debilitating.

Are you anxious when you face a difficult or challenging situation? Maybe you’re one of the millions of people who don’t like public speaking. But does fear keep you from performing your job or everyday tasks? If so, then likely it’s time that you speak with someone, because anxiety can be overcome and you can live a life without that overwhelming fear.

Anxiety affects children, adolescents and adults alike in our society. The level of anxiety can range from mild to severe, and often interferes with the ability to perform your daily tasks, much less to live a happier and more fulfilling life. People with anxiety can experience:

• constant worry
• disruption of social activities
• interference with family/school/other daily activities
• fatigue or difficulty sleeping
• feeling tense
• irritability

Anxiety, like depression, can interrupt your ability to live happily and enjoy the simple moments of everyday life. Time with your children. Working collaboratively with a team at work. Traveling for work, or even just seeing and talking with friends while running errands. Anxiety can rob you of these times – but rest assured, it does not have to stay that way.
