Anxiety is your nervous system's threat response — elevated heart rate, tight chest, racing thoughts. It becomes a disorder when it's disproportionate or persistent. Most anxiety is manageable with the right tools.
What are the main types of anxiety?
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Panic Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder, Health Anxiety, and Separation Anxiety are the most common. Each has different triggers but overlapping tools for relief.
How do I calm anxiety fast?
Box breathing (4 in, 4 hold, 4 out) activates your parasympathetic nervous system in 60–90 seconds. Follow with 5-4-3-2-1 grounding to anchor your mind in the present. These are the fastest, most evidence-backed techniques.
