Anxiety in-and-of-itself is not a pathology.
Anxiety starts the protective response to danger that boosts heartbeat and breathing, pumping oxygenated blood to your muscles as your body prepares to fight or flee.
A bit of healthy anxiety can help you finish work on time, push you to study hard for an exam, or discourage you from taking a dangerous risk.
However, suppose anxiety is persistent, excessive, or often triggered by situations that are not an actual threat.
In that case, you may benefit from seeing a therapist to help counteract these more severe forms of anxiety.
