Let us briefly explore the implications of the automatic nervous system's sympathetic and parasympathetic modes. Modern times has us living in constant sympathetic mode, which is known as the fight or flight response, aka survival mode. In this state, we're always watching for signs of impending doom yet unable to focus and remember simple things.

Thiscan create substantial negative effects like indigestion, diarrhea, panic attacks, insomnia, fatigue, low immunity, blood sugar dysregulation, early aging and memory loss, hypertension, hormonal imbalance and many more.
Anxiety, is an off shoot of this constant vigilant state. Where "what if" is a mantra and disaster seems inevitable. After we've maintained this state for a long period we can become chronically depressed which is a common result when anxiety goes underground.

Of course, it doesn't help that we're bombarded with news briefs about what to worry about next; contrary to CNN and the commercial buyers of news programs, anxiety is not a natural state for daily life. In fact, anxiety creates a state of helplessness that traps you into thinking you have to make desperate choices.
