Maybe you experience a persistent, quiet background hum of worry that you just can't seem to turn off. You might find yourself overanalyzing a casual comment a coworker made, replaying past conversations in your head, or feeling an intense pressure to make everything "perfect" so nothing goes wrong. Sometimes, it shows up in your body first as a tightness in your chest, a knot in your stomach, trouble sleeping, or a sudden wave of restlessness that makes it impossible to fully relax.

​

If you feel like you are constantly on high alert, waiting for the other shoe to drop, or avoiding certain places and situations because they feel too overwhelming, you are not just "overreacting." You don’t need a specific label or diagnosis to recognize that this constant state of tension is exhausting, and you deserve a space where you can finally catch your breath. Anxiety therapy can help.
