has been part of life since the early days of humanity. Some even argue that animals, especially domestic animals, also experience feelings of anxiety. Anxiety can be a normal body reaction to dangerous situations with the outcome of fight or flight response. Our adrenaline glands release the two hormones that fuel our body and prepare for immediate action. This reaction helps us pay attention, concentrate and gather our ability to react promptly in distress. Even though anxiety was officially classified as a disorder in the 20th century, the roots of this condition trace back to Greco-Roman philosophers. One of the first mentions of anxiety was in a case described in the Hippocratic Corpus about a man experiencing an anxiety disorder. As a disorder anxiety can prevent us from living full life and make every day as a battle. #anxiety #psychosomatic #helpyourself #chigwellessex
