@alicethefrog Hey; thank you for posing this question. I am not a scientist, but I believe that when anxiety greatly affects one's ability to live, then it could reach a critical point.
For example, if your anxiety is so great that you cannot walk outside or leave your home, that would be a significant dilemma. It would mean you lack vitamin D, you lack access to resources, such as going to work and earning money, getting food at a store or medications, and the stress and lack of resources could set other physical and mental health issues in motion.
I hope that makes sense.
