No, not at all! Anxiety could just mean you get nervous. Anxiety is not crazy or mental at all! Don't worry.

No, everyone has anxiety in some shape or form. It’s how we handle it that sets us apart. If we let it control us, it will become more of an issue, but if you control it, you will find it will be much easier to handle.

Having anxiety doesn’t mean you’re crazy. In fact, most people experience anxiety. Another reminder that you’re not alone, many people go through it and you don’t have to do it alone.

No, not at all. Anxiety is very common and can be caused by many factors.I understand anxiety can often in the moment feel like you are crazy for experiencing that but know that many people suffer from anxiety and it is the bodys way of reacting to a perceived threat or to extreme stress.

No, not at all. Having anxiety does not mean you’re crazy, it means you are interantlly suffering potentially due to breakups, no confidence, abuse ect. You can also suffer with anxiety for no particular reason at all; but again even that scenario does not mean you are crazy.

No it certainly doesn’t! Having anxiety does not make you crazy and certainly not mental! It means you have some trouble dealing with certain things, but anxiety is always something you can lessen the symptoms.

No, not at all. It just means that there is some situation in your life that you are having tremendous difficulty in controlling. Your mind has repressed this feeling and your body starts manifesting it in different ways. Anxiety being the resultant of the trigger.

No, not at all. It's healthy to have some anxiety. We all have situations in life that can lead to anxiety, it's important to share these worries to help you cope when it becomes overwhelming. Anxiety definitely does not mean you are crazy!
