ABSTRACT
Anxiety is a typical human feeling that everyone occasionally feels. Anxiety may, nevertheless,
be regarded as an anxiety disorder when it manifests itself excessively and interferes with daily
life. A set of mental health illnesses known as anxiety disorders are characterised by extreme,
ongoing worry or fear. Therapy and medication are frequently used in the treatment of anxiety
disorders. Anxiety disorders are frequently treated using cognitive-behavioural therapy, which
assists patients in recognising and altering harmful thought patterns and behaviours. To help
alleviate symptoms, doctors may also prescribe drugs like benzodiazepines and selective
serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs). In order to enhance outcomes and quality of life, it is
crucial for people with anxiety disorders to get professional assistance as soon as possible. A
good diet and regular exercise can also help manage the symptoms of anxiety disorders. Stress
management practises can also be useful.
