Anxiety is a general term for nervousness, fear, apprehension, and worrying.
This affects how we feel and behave and can cause physical symptoms. Mild anxiety is vague and unsettling, while severe anxiety can seriously affect day-to-day living.
These zodiac signs can’t help but feel anxious more than others:
1. Aries
Those born under the sign of the ram (March 21 – April 19) are known for their take-charge personalities. The downside to this is a tendency to lose their cool when they are not in charge. Aries start to panic when there’s no obvious leader; they get nervous when there are no instructions given, especially in novel situations.
2. Virgo
Poor Virgo – they want things to be picture perfect at all times. This makes them great at organizing households and businesses, but also leaves them prone to freaking out when they can’t make their wishes known. People born under this sign (August 23 – September 22) like to have their day planned out to the last minute; they are not very good with unstructured time, and tend to get nervous if they have minutes leftover.
3. Leo
Leo (July 23 – August 22) always has plenty of energy to spare, but this often gets translated into panic when there’s no obvious outlet for their passion. Unfortunately, panic and confusion sometimes manifests as anger. Be sure to let Leo have their space to calm down to avoid an unpleasant argument! You are sure to keep your friends and family happier this way.
4. Gemini
Gemini (May 21 – June 20) has a reputation for being highly adaptable and at home in just about any situation. As usual, the truth is much more complicated, and Gemini people are likely to have an impatient streak a mile wide. The Geminis in your life hate to be kept waiting, and are likely to move on to the next thing that catches their attention if you are not there to keep up with them.
5. Pisces
Everyone knows that Pisces (February 19 – March 20) are among the most sensitive signs in the Zodiac, and this means they are among the most likely to panic when the going gets tough. If you are a Pisces, you might hide from conflict or you might simply start losing control. You might cry, get scared, or ask for help when confronted with a frightening or tense situation.
These five signs in particular have to find innovative ways of coping with pressure. Talk with a friend, call a family member, or simply take a deep breath. Remember that the world isn’t going anywhere; you can afford to take some extra time and unwind a bit.
Panic isn’t healthy; you deserve to treat yourself well. When you start to feel panic rising, remember – you are in control of your emotions! Show this list to your friends; what do they have to say?
