When you think of anxiety, you might imagine feeling stressed or overwhelmed. However, anxiety is actually your body's natural response to perceived threats.

The mind and the body have a special connection to each other. When the mind feels something different, the rest of the body has a reaction to it.

Anxiety is when you feel intense fear or worry on a daily basis. Any time something unpredictable or new happens, you have a tendency to think you are in danger. Depression is when you experience a sadness that lasts more than two weeks and the things you used to love are no longer doing it for you.
