When anxiety gets out of hand it can interfere with your enjoyment of life
Anxiety is your body’s way of alerting you to danger. Whilst the experience of anxiety feels unpleasant, it can help you to cope with what’s happening and deal with it in a sensible manner.
However, when you start feeling anxious over normal situations or for no apparent reason, it can disrupt your life. Anxiety in men is more common than you think. Studies have shown that untreated anxiety can lead to other complications for men including depression and heart problems.
