Your body is a finely tuned alert system, and ANXIETY is one of its most powerful built-in features. Far from being a flaw, anxiety is actually a survival SIGNAL — a message your nervous system sends when it detects something that might need your attention. Scientists describe anxiety as a state of TENSION, unease, or worry that can show up in both your mind and body at the same time. Understanding anxiety is one of the most important health investigations a person your age can undertake. The more you learn about what is happening inside you, the more POWER you gain to respond to it wisely.
