Chronic Anxiety



Many of the symptoms of chronic anxiety are similar to acute anxiety, but they are less intense and more prolonged. They can last for days, weeks, or months. There is a considerable amount of tension and expectation of conflict. There is fear about the future and an inability to deal effectively with other people, especially at home, school, and work. The condition is also characterized by chronic fatigue, insomnia, and headaches along with difficulty in concentration. With chronic anxiety the individual is still able to function on some level, but the ability to deal with life situations is substantially compromised.
