Anxiety disorders are highly prevalent in the United States, affecting a significant portion of the population. While precise figures vary depending on the diagnostic criteria and survey methodology, studies consistently show that a substantial number of American adults experience diagnosable anxiety at some point in their lives. Rates have shown an upward trend in recent years, exacerbated by factors such as societal stressors, economic instability, and the COVID-19 pandemic. This widespread prevalence highlights the significant public health concern posed by anxiety disorders and underscores the need for increased access to mental health services and preventative measures. Therapy can help manage the symptoms of anxiety and develop coping skills to tolerate the stress of life.
