Translate Clinical Anxiety Terms Into Everyday Language

A clinical term from a leaflet or a professional conversation can sound both alarming and vague at the same time. This explains what it generally describes in everyday language, gives one illustrative example of how it might show up, and is clear that understanding a term is not a diagnosis, with a GP being the right place for an actual assessment.
