ANXIETY
When anxiety starts to feel overwhelming..
Anxiety is a common human response to uncertainty, pressure, or perceived threat. However, when anxiety becomes persistent, excessive, or difficult to control, it can begin to affect how you think, feel, sleep, and function in everyday life.
If you find yourself worrying constantly, feeling restless or on edge, or struggling to feel calm even when there is no immediate reason, it does not mean you are weak or incapable. It often means your nervous system has been in a heightened state for longer than it can comfortably sustain.
Many people live with anxiety for a long time before recognising how much it is impacting their mental well-being and quality of life.
How anxiety commonly shows up
Anxiety can present differently from person to person. It may affect thoughts, emotions, physical sensations, or behaviour. Common experiences include:
-
Excessive or uncontrollable worry about everyday matters
-
Feeling constantly tense, restless, or on edge
-
Difficulty concentrating or a racing mind
-
Physical symptoms such as palpitations, sweating, trembling, or shortness of breath
-
Sleep disturbances, including difficulty falling or staying asleep
-
Avoiding certain situations due to fear or discomfort
​
These experiences may fluctuate in intensity and often persist even when reassurance or logical reasoning does not bring relief.
When anxiety may need professional attention
It may be helpful to consider a psychiatric consultation if anxiety:
-
Persists for weeks or months without improvement
-
Interferes with work, studies, relationships, or daily activities
-
Affects sleep, appetite, or emotional stability
-
Leads to constant mental fatigue or distress
-
Feels difficult to manage despite efforts to cope independently
​
Seeking professional help does not mean something is seriously wrong. It means you are taking steps to understand and manage your mental health responsibly.​
