If you think you might be experiencing anxiety, there are {{numberofresults}} in Benin who are there to help. Anxiety symptoms may look like:

• Shutting off in situations where you feel threatened

• Scary thoughts that feel like they came out of nowhere
• Restlessness, fidgeting, or can't seem to sit still
• Trembling, sweating, or feeling clammy
• Suddenly feeling hot or cold
• Changes in appetite
• Increased heart rate

It's normal for anxiety to impact thoughts, feelings, and even physical sensations. Everyone's experience is different, which can make it hard to know what's happening when you've never experienced it before. Some people feel a mild sense of anxiety most of the time.
