Anxiety
All people experience fear and anxiety. Fear is an emotional physiologic and behavioral response to a recognized external threat. Anxiety is an unpleasant emotional state that has a less clear source. As such, anxiety indicates the presence of psychological conflict.

Every person has a personal threshold for what he or she can handle in a given situation. Some people have a lower threshold due to their genetic makeup or past experiences. If pushed past this threshold by events, these people feel stressed, even overwhelmed, and can easily have anxiety attacks.

Indications
It could be that you are one among so many others getting those “anxiety attacks”. There are many reasons why you get them. An anxiety attack is your response to stress, such as the breakup of an important relationship or exposure to a life-threatening disaster or even a kind of lifestyle one leads or is forced to lead. It can take some time for an anxiety disorder to develop. It presents none, or very few, symptoms until the disorder has developed fully.

Management of anxiety
Management of anxiety disorders or the short-term symptomatic relief of symptoms of excessive anxiety is now possible. Please note that anxiety or tension associated with the stress of everyday life usually does not require treatment with a medicine.

With Alprazolam (Xanax) management of the anxiety and insomnia has now become easy. Alprazolam is often preferable to other Benzodiazepine for the treatment of anxiety disorders. Alprazolam is the recommended drug for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and is for the management of panic disorders with or without agoraphobia.
