What causes anxiety? There are several causes of anxiety disorders and most of them have their root in fear. Anxiety acts like a truck gps tracking for the brain telling it that there is the likelihood of something feared occurring. I’m not sure if I’m making much sense here.
If something bad happened to you in a particular spot and in certain circumstances, whenever you experience those circumstances at that spot, anxiety is triggered. Sometimes, all that needs to be present is one factor: the place or the circumstances and you are filled with anxiety.
Anxiety can be linked to worry.
Don’t worry about anything; instead, pray about everything. Tell God what you need, and thank him for all he has done. ~ Philippians 4:6
When things threaten to overwhelm you and you feel yourself succumbing to worry or anxiety, just tell God. And don’t forget to thank him for all he has done. Gratitude is a huge antidote to worry.
