Anxiety

   /   
Anxiety is a normal human emotion that can serve as a natural response to stress or potential threats. In moderation, it can even be beneficial, helping us stay alert and focused. However, when anxiety becomes overwhelming or persistent, seeking support and coping strategies is important to maintain a healthy balance and well-being.
