Anxiety is a psychological term used to describe a persistent or fleeting feeling that is a mixture of apprehension, worry and fear. Severe anxiety can be accompanied by actual physical symptoms. Common anxiety symptoms include heart palpitations and shortness of breath. Because these symptoms also resemble those that occur during a heart attack, anxiety sufferers may worry that there is something physically wrong with them when in fact it is only psychiatric and not a physical problem.

Anxiety sufferers are usually at a loose end after trying methods such as Cognitive Behavioral Techniques, Hypnosis, Sessions with psychologists, Meditation, Herbal Alternatives and probably the most popular of them all is Medications such as anti-depressants and Benzodiazepine's.
