We feel anxiety when we are worried, tense or afraid. This could be about things that are going to happen, or which could happen in the future.  

This course recognises that anxiety is a normal human response to everyday stresses and discusses when anxiety can become a mental health issue. It explains:

  • What panic disorder is.
  • What defines a panic attack.
  • How to deal with and prevent panic attacks.
  • Ways to cope with anxiety disorders including positive coping strategies, relaxation techniques, complementary therapies, psychological therapies and medication.    

This course will take approximately 1 to 2 hours to complete, but this timing will depend on how fast you read and how long you spend on the reflective questions. You do not need to complete the whole course in one go. If you leave and come back to the course it will remember where you got up to.
