Key Signs & Symptoms of Anxiety Disorder

Excessive Worry

Excessive worry is one of the most common signs of an anxiety disorder. Unlike other issues, the worry related to anxiety isn’t associated with the situations that cause it. Instead, it often happens in response to daily, normal events. To be a symptom of anxiety disorder, this condition must happen on most days in at least 6 months. In most cases, you might find it hard to control this intrusive and severe symptom, making it challenging to accomplish and concentrate on everyday tasks at work or school. People with higher risks include those who are under 65-year-old, single, have many stressors in life, and in low socioeconomic status. [2]
