It's critical to understand that, even if you suffer from panic attacks, compulsive thoughts, ongoing worry, or a phobia, you don't have to live in fear and anxiety. In many cases, therapy is the most effective strategy to handle anxiety-related problems. Therapy gives you the skills and teaches you how to use them to overcome anxiety. If stress is not managed, it can become chronic stress and ultimately lead to burnout. While burnout leaves people feeling completely exhausted and unmotivated to keep going, stress often results in people feeling overwhelmed. Therapy provides coping mechanisms for stress symptoms, which may help to avoid burnout.

Anxiety is anticipating something evil to happen in the future, which brings stress to the person and interrupts the routine and healthy psychological function. The anxiety itself is a necessary part of everyday life, but when it becomes extreme, it can cause harm for our mental health. To learn how to manage anxiety and cope with the stress is a skill that is needed to cope with everyday problems as well as traumatic experiences in life.
