What is Anxiety Disorder?
Anxiety disorder is a mental health condition characterized by excessive fear, worry, or nervousness that interferes with daily life. While occasional anxiety is a normal response to stress, anxiety disorders involve persistent and overwhelming feelings that are out of proportion to the actual situation.
