Anxiety is something that makes people very nervous and almost scared or worried. You always overthink everything and worry about everything. It makes you feel very overwhelmed and stressed. An example is at school.  Maybe you have a test soon or you have a lot of work to get done. Another example is other life problems.

Normally people will try and hide their mental health and anxiety problems because they do not want to be judged by others or disliked because they think they are different. However, it is not something you should keep all to yourself because it could get worse. There is also so many people who can help you with your anxiety. They can also help determine whether or not your anxiety is normal or if you may need serious help. There is a difference between mental health and mental illness. If you feel as if your anxiety or depression is not normal, you should tell someone so that you can get help. Your physical health and mental health also go hand-in-hand. Depression can lead to headaches and fatigue and anxiety can lead to upset problems, difficulty sleeping and difficulty staying focused.

A couple ways you can treat anxiety is using stress management, eating healthy and getting a good amount of sleep. You should also remember to talk to someone so that all the pressure of your anxiety and/or depression is not all on you. You can talk to parents, friends, counselors or any trusted adult in your life.
