For those of us already suffering from anxiety, the holiday season presents its own special challenges. Typically, anxiety increases during this time as the weight of expectation and seemingly endless ‘to do’ list combine to provoke or intensify symptoms.
Even for people who have not been diagnosed with a pre-existing anxiety disorder, the prospect of Thanksgiving, Christmas and the host of other celebrations that occur around this time can bring on a first attack.
