  1. Excessive worry or fear: You may feel anxious or fearful about things that most people wouldn’t find threatening.
  2. Difficulty controlling your worry: You may feel like your worries are taking over your life, and you can’t stop them.
  3. Physical symptoms: Anxiety can also cause physical symptoms such as sweating, trembling, rapid heartbeat, shortness of breath, nausea, and headaches.
