What is anxiety?

Anxiety is the natural response of our body to stress; it’s an emotional reaction causing worry, apprehension, fear, and other physical signs about future events.

Most people can experience anxiety at some point in their lives. Fear is a very emotional response to a real or perceived danger or threat; stress happens when our body reacts to those situations.

Since they’re a normal response due to an external cause, a bit of them can keep us safe and alert to potential threats. But, an excessive, intense feeling of fear and constant stress affecting everyday life may be a sign of an anxiety disorder.
In ordinary anxiety, fear and worry relate to specific and real problems, and feelings disappear after events are over.
An anxiety disorder involves excessive worrying about unrealistic future problems. The persistent feeling of dread and apprehension for no reason is hard to control; this state remains even when the situation has been resolved.
From the TCM perspective, anxiety occurs due to an imbalance of complementary forces yin and yang. Disruption in the energy flow –or qi– results in illness, affecting the proper function of internal organs and emotions.

    Specific causes of anxiety remain unclear, though researchers determine that involves both internal and external factors.

    • Prolonged symptoms of a disease
    • Extreme stressful situations such as work pressure, financial issues, grief for a recent loss, or break up.
    • Environmental factors
    • In high-altitude areas, low oxygen levels can cause breathing difficulty setting anxiety off.
    • Also, diet could be a factor when consuming some foods or drinks, including sugar and caffeine.
    • Traumas
    • Traumatic past experiences can have a significant impact on the psyche, making it difficult to manage emotions.
    • It may often be childhood or adolescence-related but also to adulthood due to military combat, for instance.
    • Substance abuse
    • Alcohol, caffeine, nicotine, and illicit drugs or their withdrawal can make anxiety disorder worse.
