Anxiety and Fear
- Anxiety is the result of psychological and physiological processes in the body.
- Anxiety is not the same as fear although it is related to it.
- Anxiety is the response to danger that warns you from "within" - as an instinct - that there is danger and you may lose control of the situation.
- Fear is the reaction to real danger that can cause harm.
- Fear is usually short lived. Anxiety lasts longer.
- It is normally difficult to assess whether your reaction is due to anxiety or fear.
- Anxiety and fear coexist in almost all situations in varying proportions.
- It is more important to find out the causes of your symptoms than to decide if it is fear or anxiety.
