Anxiety is persistent with no reasonable triggers. You find it hard to control your worries and it can become very difficult to manage. It affects your day-to-day life or gets in the way of living your life the way you want. It can become an overwhelming challenge in a young person’s life, learning, socialising, and enjoying school and home.
Specific Phobias, Panic Disorder, Social Anxiety Disorder and Generalised Anxiety Disorder (GAD) are all classified as anxiety disorders. GAD is one of the most common, affecting up to 5% of the UK population.
