Medical Context: Anxiety
Anxiety is an emotion of turmoil and dread over anticipated events. While anxiety itself is a normal reaction to an unknown situation, persistent anxiety that lasts longer than a few months is a mental health disorder, and it often presents with other mental health conditions, such as obsessive-compulsive disorder or post-traumatic stress disorder.
Anxiety disorders are one of the most commonly seen mental disorders, affecting 12-30% of the population. Anxiety disorders can be caused by genetics, medication, medical conditions, or social/psychological situations. Symptoms can include muscle tension, nausea, fatigue, breathing issues, and problems with concentration. Anxiety can be treated with medication and psychotherapy. Jimenez has been public about her struggles with anxiety, suggesting that Jacob’s experiences are informed by the author’s lived experience.
