Fears and anxiety are inevitable parts of life. Everyone experiences them at one time or another.
Anxiety generally occurs as an occasional temporary reaction to the stresses of everyday life.
FEAR Fear can be described as an unpleasant emotion that occurs in response to a consciously recognized source of danger, real or imaginary. The physical symptoms that occur during fear are rapid pulse rate and breathing, raised blood pressure and increased muscle tension. Physical symptoms include shortness of breath, dizziness, a sinking feeling in the stomach and rapid heart beat. Panic attacks are sudden spells of intense anxiety that usually come on without warning. Several million Americans are affected by panic attacks.
