It's subjective but-: Everyone seems to understand when a person says "i'm really anxious right now".It's not always clear what causes those uncomfortable feelings of racing heart beats, restlessness, and sometimes chest pressure and shortness of breath. Others feel an almost electrical "wired" sensation. Some people can't sleep or eat or will do the reverse. Usually anxious folks don't function well either.
