Let's talk about anxiety. 

Anxiety disorders affect 18% of adults in the United States, according to the National Institute of Mental Health. The symptoms vary by person and situation, and may coexist with depression. In the past ten plus years, effective treatments have hit the markets and are widely available - and yet 63% of people with anxiety are untreated.

If you're like me, you're one of that 18%. 

Your general mood may be one of unease, nervousness, or worry. Your thoughts may spiral, and you may lash out at loved ones. In times of great stress, an event might trigger an anxiety attack (also called a panic attack). Your heart races, you start to sweat and can't catch your breath, and feel a sudden detachment from the world around you. Panic attacks are not only exhausting, but they can be embarrassing. ​Panic attacks are a prime example of physical anxiety symptoms. Both physical and mental symptoms can impact a person's health.
