Do you get Anxious? Do U Know Wat Actually Anxiety is ?

We all get anxious at times and some of us get anxious most of the time and we dont know why we get and wat actually anxiety is. We live in such a culture where knowing the reasons for any emotion are undermined not only by the illiterate people but also by literate ones. Actually we fear not to find something that is behaviourally abnormal in us so we deny or sublime or use any other defence mechanism(for detail abt it wait for the next blog) to ignore our own behavioural analysis or knowledge and always end up saying " I don't know why i do so?".

As far as anxiety is concern technically Sigmund Freud states "it as an unpleasant inner state of mind that people seek to avoid". In simple words anxiety is the human mind's reaction to stress and tension. If it is normal then it help you to cope up with tense situation by signally the mind to stimulate respective hormonal activities when it exceeds it become disorder known as anxiety disorder. But Freud have view anxiety not as normal. According to him it indicate about something not being right either morally,neurotically or in reality. Among these three reality anxiety is the most common in us which comprises of fear from anything that can happen in reality. Many of us fear reptile group animals we get a very weird feeling when we see a lizard staring or comes toward us or some fear Heights etc (Yes Phobia is also an anxiety disorder)so that weird feeling is anxiety.It also occur unconsciously when we fear that any of our desire action would be socially unacceptable, our mind indulge into anxiety.

People who have any of the anxiety disorder they tend to feel insecure and always expect any disaster to happen. They cant stop worrying abt any particular thing or anything in general. So if you are worry excessively abt anything and it also affecting your daily life's work then you may have anxiety disorder. The main thing here to notice is that if due to any thinking or worry ur daily day's work is getting scrabbled frequently or for longer period of time then it is severe otherwise we all have our hard times once in a while. It have physical symptoms as well which are generally misunderstood likeconstant headache,nausea,irritability,body pain,lack of concentration Etc.

My whole point of writing all this is that whenever we feel such things we mostly dont know wats happening to us, now atleast we could be knowing that wats happening so we can look up for any furthur knowledge abt it.In today's world we human have burden our mind with endless worries of countless things and our perception gives them importance more than they should have and for icing on the cake we dont pay right attention to their consequences. For e.g Mostly our mothers have complain abt a constant headache or body pain which we settle down by saying " mom u dont take care of ur diet and nutrition" ..we have never looked at the other side of the coin that our mom may be having any stress or unconscious worry of which even she is not aware of ( i just took mom as an example this apply to everyone). So the next time you feel something persistantly wrong with urself dont ignore it and look up for the reason for any such condition because your body,your life and your emotions are very precious dont just waste them.

In Comments Plz do mention if u have any such condition, by sharing we all could learn something from each other. Thanks
