Most people experience anxiety from time to time. You may feel anxious before you take a test, give a presentation at work, or while going through financial difficulty. This kind of anxiety is beneficial – it can make you more alert and cautious. It also usually ends soon after you are out of the situation that caused it. But for millions of people the anxiety does not go away, and in fact it may get worse over time. If you or a loved one experience anxiety that is persistent, uncontrollable, or overwhelming it may be time to seek professional help.

ANXIETY
Experiencing anxiety occasionally is normal. Anxiety may arise when problems confront us, prior to a test, or when making a life-altering choice. A disorder involving anxiety, though, is a far cry from temporary fear or worry.
OBSESSIVE COMPULSIVE DISORDER
Approximately 1 in 40 adults and 1 in 100 children in the United States have Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). OCD occurs when a person gets stuck in a cycle of obsessions and compulsions. Learn more about obtaining help for OCD.
PANIC DISORDER
A panic attack is a sudden surge of overwhelming anxiety and fear. A person may also have a strong physical reaction during a panic attack. It may feel like having a heart attack. They may even occur when you’re relaxed or asleep.
CHILDHOOD MENTAL HEALTH
FAMILY SUPPORT
The demands of anxiety can consume a household. Family members often get pulled into their loved one’s worrying thoughts or repetitive behaviors. Understandably, parents will do anything they can to minimize an anxious child’s distress. Most family members have performed a family accommodation behavior for their anxious child.
