Anxiety and stress, although related, are very different things. Some can experience anxiety without stressful events. Others can experience stress without anxiety. And certainly, others can experience stress and anxiety in ways where they inflame each other making life very difficult. To address stress and anxiety, I would work on 3 levels. The 1st is to immediately increase skills and tools to decrease stress and anxiety. The 2nd is to become aware of the thinking patterns that exacerbate these negative experiences. And the 3rd is to look at one’s relationship with life. This involves learning life management skills that can make a difference to improve one's life.
