At times, we all experience feelings of unease, concern and apprehension, which are typical reactions to specific circumstances.

For instance, worrying about a job interview or meeting a financial obligation on time are common occurrences. These emotions can serve as indicators of potential risks and guide you on how to navigate challenging or perilous situations, known as the ‘fight or flight’ reaction. In response to a perceived threat, the brain triggers the release of stress hormones like adrenaline and cortisol, causing physical manifestations of anxiety even if the danger is not imminent. Once the threat subsides, the body usually returns to its normal state.

In the case of an anxiety disorder, persistent feelings of fear and threat can persist and disrupt your daily life long after the danger has passed.

If you are suffering with general anxiety disorder, you could be experiencing racing thoughts, excessive and uncontrollable over thinking, feeling irritable, changes in appetite, sleeping problems, sweating, fast heart rate, sickness, hair loss and others – We are here to help!
