How to Overcome Anxiety
Anxiety is an irrational and debilitating feeling of fear that may be triggered by specific life events or may occur without apparent reason.
The symptoms of anxiety are wide-ranging, but may include avoidance of previously enjoyable activities (eg social events), poor concentration, rumination (mentally going over things repeatedly), restlessness and poor/disturbed sleep. Physical symptoms may include vertigo/dizziness, nausea, diarrhea, indigestion, dry mouth, shortness of breath, palpitations among others.
In short, for sufferers, anxiety is no less than a living hell.

The result can be irrational fear, leading to problems of anxiety, stress and ultimately paralysis of the life force that drives the fulfillment of our very purpose.
Anxiety takes many forms, eg: generalized anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorder and phobias, post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), social anxiety disorder...
