Anxiety often feels like your mind is constantly scanning for danger, even when there’s no immediate threat.
You may find yourself replaying situations, anticipating everything that could go wrong, and trying to control every detail to prevent disaster. This hyper-vigilance can be exhausting, mental energy is spent on “what ifs,” making it hard to relax or enjoy the present moment.
​
Physically, anxiety can show up as tension, restlessness, rapid heartbeat, or trouble sleeping. Emotionally, it can bring guilt, self-doubt, and a sense of being on edge all the time. Even simple decisions can feel overwhelming because you’re weighing all possible negative outcomes.
