Anxiety onto itself is a normal human reaction to stress.  When the anxiety becomes excessive, it is considered as a disorder.  It can have four dimensions: mental, physical tension, physical symptoms and symptoms associated with hyperventillation.  Western medicine regards the causes to be either biological or stress related.

 

Chinese medicine has a different perspective on the condition of anxiety.  The causes can be grouped into excessiveness and deficiencies.
