Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal response to danger. It becomes a burden when it is excessive, very frequent or comes without reason and restricts daily life, for example with panic attacks, phobias or constant worry. Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health conditions and respond well to treatment.

What you can do yourself
Exercise regularly
Endurance exercise relieves tension and lowers background anxiety.
Breathe slowly
Breathing out longer than in calms the body when anxiety rises.
Do not avoid
Avoidance makes anxiety stronger. Face feared situations step by step.
