What is Anxiety?
Anxiety is more than occasional nervousness or worry. It can involve persistent fear, tension, racing thoughts, physical symptoms, or difficulty relaxing that interfere with everyday life.
Anxiety can affect people differently. Some adults experience ongoing worry, while others may have panic symptoms, social fears, difficulty sleeping, irritability, or problems concentrating.
At Clarity Point NP Psychiatry, an evaluation can help identify how anxiety is affecting your daily life and determine which psychiatric treatment options may be appropriate for your individual needs.
