Anxiety is inevitable, experiencing it occasionally is a normal part of life, However, if your worries are intense, excessive, and persistent, you might have an anxiety disorder. This is quite prevalent at present than they were decades ago.

We can observe that in recent days, people, especially young people rely more on social media and digital stuff. They’ve lost the real human connection. In this way, they become more worried about things that happen online and in turn increase their anxiety level. Like when you feel terrible, you need to talk to someone, your friend, or a family member not go online and seek consolation in your Facebook.
Another reason for this increased anxiety is information overload. We can google almost everything and this is good but too much for something is not good enough. Consuming way too much information that our brain can handle. Fear is now used to motivate us.
Our intolerant attitude towards negative feelings is another cause of this increased anxiety. We avoid situations that make us nervous. We try to bury uncomfortable feelings like anxiety and stress with alcohol or entertainment or shopping sprees.
