Anxiety and Stress’ Meet the Best Psychiatrists - Dr. Anuja Kelkar ( MBBS, MD)

 

Anxiety and stress are often interconnected but distinct experiences. Anxiety refers to a feeling of unease, worry, or fear about a future event or circumstance, which may be accompanied by physical symptoms like increased heart rate or sweating. Stress, on the other hand, is the body's response to a perceived threat or demand, whether real or imagined, leading to a range of emotional, physical, and behavioural reactions.

While some level of anxiety and stress is normal and even beneficial for motivating action, excessive or prolonged levels can have detrimental effects on mental and physical health. Chronic stress has been linked to various health problems, including heart disease, depression, and compromised immune function.

Managing anxiety and stress involves adopting healthy coping mechanisms such as mindfulness practices, exercise, relaxation techniques, seeking social support, and prioritizing self-care. Professional help from therapists or counsellors may also be beneficial in developing effective strategies for managing anxiety and stress.
