Anxiety is a normal part of life but there does come a point where you need to seek help. If the anxiety is causing problems day after day then you might need to seek help. If th anxiety is causing your grades/work performance to decrease, impact your social life, or make you afraid of certain situations then you might need to seek help.

Anxiety is normal as long as it doesn't begin to disrupt your everyday life. If it starts to interfere with your work, relationships or downgrade the quality of your everyday life then you should seek help.

Most people have some degree of anxiety, but I think if it's taking a big toll on you or keeping you from living your life and doing things that you want to do, you should consider seeking help.

Everyone has a certain level of anxiety that is stable and motivates them to do things, but that anxiety is escalated when it starts to overwhelm a person and pressure them into working too much. That being said, anxiety makes different people act in different ways, so it would a good idea to talk to someone about your anxieties to help relieve them.

I personally believe anxiety is normal when it's manageable and doesn't disturb your daily life. If it's not manageable and you go into full blown attacks or nervous break downs, then I feel like you might need to seek help on calming that down. If it's not disturbing your daily life or functioning during the day I feel like that's when it's okay or "normal". A.K.A unmanageable.

The moment you notice it affecting your daily routine, get help. When you start to become anxious about things you've previously never been bothered by, and it starts to become a regular occurrence, get help.

When you are unable to do simple things that everyone else can do, this is when you should seek help! When you feel like enough is enough or when you feel like anxiety has taken a toll on your life. Maybe try talking to a friend or an active listener for support.

I think its all personal preference. If it gets to be something that affects your every day life, that would seem like a good time to ask for help definitely. Even if you just start feeling "symptoms" of anxiety, you can always talk to a family member, or friend
