Anxiety: Symptoms, Treatment, and How to Find Relief

Common Symptoms of Anxiety

Anxiety looks different for everyone, but common symptoms include:

• Racing thoughts or difficulty concentrating

• Constant worry or fear

• Restlessness or feeling “on edge”

• Rapid heartbeat, sweating, or shaking

• Trouble sleeping or staying asleep

• Muscle tension or headaches

• Avoidance of people, places, or situations that trigger anxiety

If you notice these symptoms regularly, it may be a sign that anxiety is interfering with your life in a way that therapy can help.
