" Anxiety (also called angst or worry) is a psychological and physiological state characterized by somatic, emotional, cognitive, and behavioral components. It is the displeasing feeling of fear and concern. The root meaning of the word anxiety is 'to vex or trouble'; in either presence or absence of psychological stress, anxiety can create feelings of fear, worry, uneasiness, and dread. It is also associated with feelings of restlessness, fatigue,
concentration problems, and muscle tension. However, anxiety should not
be confused with fear, which is more of a dreaded feeling about
something which appears intimidating and can overcome an individual. Anxiety is considered to be a normal reaction to a stressor.
It may help an individual to deal with a demanding situation by
prompting them to cope with it. However, when anxiety becomes
overwhelming, it may fall under the classification of an anxiety disorder. Anxiety can be confused with fear. However, fear is concrete, (a real
danger) whereas anxiety is the paranoia of something out there that
seems menacing but may not be menacing, and, indeed, may not even be out
there. " - wikipedia
