A member asked:

Why do so many people complain about their whole lives growing up with severe anxiety problems? how hard is it to get over it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Hard to get over it: Anxiety is treated to a useful degree, but rarely cured.Chemical imbalance is managed but not changed.Anxiety in the unconscious derives from psychodynamic developments since early life.Anxiety from trauma(physical, sexual, emotional) compounds as traumas accumulate.Anxiety emerges from chronic stress(nonstop fight or flight)in a hard world when we are built for brief fight or flight responses only.
