Anxiety

Anxiety is feeling nervous, worried, fearful or uneasy.

We may feel anxious about all sorts of things such as: a test, presentation in front of the classroom, making an important decision, before a game, etc. We can even be anxious over things or situations we do not have control over such as: moving from homes, competitions where judges make decisions, etc.

Feeling anxious every once in a while is NORMAL. When we begin to feel extremely nervous, fearful, or worried everyday, all day- that is when it becomes an issue.

Not at all! It is NORMAL to feel anxious. We ALL do!!

However, if we begin to feel anxious all the time- like ALL DAY & EVERYDAY. That's when it's not good.

It becomes more serious when your anxiety is affecting your ability to complete daily tasks, especially if you were able to complete them before.

Tasks like: going to class, listening to your class lessons, completing chores at home, etc.
