A member asked:
Can anxiety come out of nowhere? the last couple weeks ive been afraid i have cancer for practically no reason. no idea where this fear came from

Maybe: Anxiety always has a cause. Symptoms may appear suddenly. There is no need to suffer. Between psychotherapy and medication you can put anxiety in remission and possibly eliminate it.
