Anxiety support

Persistent worry can affect concentration, sleep and daily life. A conversation can help clarify symptoms and the support you need.

Common symptoms
  • Worry that feels hard to control
  • Feeling restless or on edge
  • Trouble concentrating
  • Sleep difficulty or fatigue
A useful care conversation

Describe what the worry feels like, how long it has lasted, its triggers and effects on daily tasks. Discuss coping strategies and any established treatment or side effects. A clinician can help plan support and identify when an in-person or specialist assessment is appropriate.

When to seek more care
  • For thoughts of suicide or urges to harm yourself, call or text 988. Call 911 for immediate danger or a life-threatening situation.
  • Do not assume new chest pain or severe breathing difficulty is anxiety; seek urgent or emergency assessment.
