A member asked:
At times i feel like the world is going so fast and i'm at a standstill... could this be caused by anxiety?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Anxiety: Yes, that sounds like anxiety. You are not alone. We live in a very fast-paced world, and this can cause a lot of anxiety. When you feel overwhelmed, try sitting quietly, breathing deeply and slowly. Think about things you like. Limit the amount of time you spend online or on social media which can cause worsened anxiety. Consider talking to a trained therapist for more specific advice.
