🧠 Why Am I Anxious? | What Is Anxiety?
Anxiety is your mind and body’s alarm system — designed to keep you safe. Feeling anxious before a big exam, interview, or first date? Totally normal! It’s your body preparing you to face a challenge.
✨ Anxiety is Normal When:
It comes and goes around stressful events
It helps you prepare, focus, or take action
It eases once the situation is over
🚩 Anxiety Might Be a Problem When:
It feels constant or out of proportion
It interferes with sleep, work, or relationships
You avoid people, places, or activities because of it
You feel on edge, irritable, or exhausted all the time
👀 Signs to Look Out For:
Racing thoughts or overthinking
Fast heartbeat or tight chest
Restlessness or tension
Trouble concentrating
Feeling “on alert” even when there’s no danger
Remember — anxiety is part of being human, but you don’t have to face overwhelming anxiety alone. Talking about it is the first step toward feeling calmer and more in control. 💛
