Understanding Anxiety Disorder in Our Community
Let’s talk about something that’s as real as it gets—anxiety. Yep, that sneaky little monster that creeps up on us when we least expect it. Whether it’s the heart racing, palms sweating, or that nagging feeling that something is just not right, anxiety is no stranger to many of us. But what does it really look like, especially in our community? Let’s dive in.
What Anxiety Looks Like:
Imagine this: You’re at a party, and suddenly, you feel like everyone’s eyes are on you, judging your every move. Your heart’s doing the cha-cha, and your mind’s racing faster than a speeding bullet. That’s anxiety for you. It’s not just being nervous before a big presentation or feeling a bit stressed. It’s a full-blown, overwhelming experience that can hit you out of nowhere
