Dear friend who asked this .... You are certainly not alone! It seems to me that anxiety is very common - I guess it depends on the degree of it, like how much does feeling anxious affect your life?

There are a lot of 'levels' of anxiety, but let me assure you - You are NOT alone in feeling anxious.
