Abstract

Anxiety is defined as a chill feeling, which anticipates that an unpleasant or undesirable event is about to happen. It is accompanied by symptoms such as muscle tension, agitation and distress. This feeling is associated with the individual's reaction to an unknown danger (1, 2, 3). When talking about anxiety, it is normal for various authors to confuse this term with anguish, fear or stress, which is why it is often difficult to find a totally adequate definition for what anxiety really is, however, these terms tend to be related enough to be able to say that anxiety can lead to high levels, fear, stress and even anxiety itself.
