To Your Health: Anxiety

Nov 15, 2022 | 1:03 PM

PRINCE GEORGE — Anxiety is something that every human has dealt with. Whether it’s being in public, travel plans or regarding school, we have all been anxious about something, which is why understanding what anxiety is, is very important.

Jenny DeReis, owner and founder of Validity Counselling, says that when it comes to anxiety, the goal is not to get rid of it all together, but to effectively manage it, so that it does not have control over your thoughts and life.

In severe cases of anxiety, medication may be used to help someone deal with anxiety, but relying solely on the medication, will not help your anxiety in the long term.

With effective coping methods, anxiety can cease to be a dominant factor in your life and no longer have control over your thoughts.
