Can you let me know how many women out there truly suffer from anxiety?

Just about all: I think every woman, and man for that matter suffers from anxiety many times over during their lives. As clinicians, it's up to us to inquire about that anxiety in an empathic, detailed manner.

Anxiety: Depends on type of anxiety, but on average, 2.5-3% population have it, with women 2x more than men.
