In today’s fast-paced world, anxiety is a common experience. For many residents of North Vancouver and surrounding areas, the pressures of urban living, demanding careers, and navigating the complexities of modern life can contribute to feelings of unease and overwhelm. While occasional anxiety is a normal human experience, when it becomes excessive or interferes with daily life, it can significantly impact your well-being.
Understanding Anxiety and Panic Attacks
Anxiety is a natural human emotion that signals potential danger. However, when anxiety becomes excessive and persistent, it can manifest in various ways, including:
- Generalized Anxiety Disorder: Excessive worry about everyday events.
- Social Anxiety Disorder: Intense fear of social situations and scrutiny from others.
- Panic Disorder: Recurrent and unexpected panic attacks, characterized by sudden surges of intense fear and physical symptoms such as rapid heartbeat, sweating, trembling, and shortness of breath.
