Anxiety

Can an anxiety attack be prevented?

When we talk about an anxiety attack, we're referring to episodes or states of high or extreme anxiety. In many cases, these episodes can occur abruptly without a specific trigger, although on many other occasions they are triggered by a stressor or a specific environmental situation.
