Anxiety, Stress & Burnout
If your mind is constantly racing, your body feels tense, or you're always "on", anxiety may be running more of your life than you realize. Anxiety disorders are the most common mental health condition in the United States. According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), more than 1 in 6 U.S. adults (19.1%) have an anxiety disorder, and 1 in 9 youth ages 3–17 (11%) also experience problems with anxiety, with most people developing symptoms before age 21. And that number doesn't include the countless people who live with chronic stress and worry without ever receiving a diagnosis.
When anxiety goes unaddressed for long enough, it often turns into something deeper, burnout, exhaustion, and a growing sense of disconnection from yourself and the people around you. Many people spend years managing symptoms without understanding what's actually driving them.
