Anxiety induces the feeling of panic and dread and everyone will feel anxious at one stage or another, worried, apprehensive or afraid that something will happen. When anxiety starts to impair quality of life continuous and causes distress it becomes a serious problem. Anxiety can lead to panic attacks which can cause a tightening of the chest, heart palpitations, shortening of the breath and sweating which can leave the individual feeling completely exhausted once the panic attack has subsided. We as humans all have a natural flight or fight response incase we are ever in danger and need to escape from a situation or threat quickly, however, when these feelings surface for no reason at all it can be debiltating for the person .
