Explanation:

Anxiety has three main components: emotional, physiological, and cognitive.

Worry is an important part of anxiety, it is only one of the three main building blocks.

Anxiety in itself is not bad. Normal levels of anxiety lie on one end of a spectrum and may present as low levels of fear or apprehension, mild sensations of muscle tightness and sweating, or doubts about your ability to complete a task. Importantly, symptoms of normal anxiety do not negatively interfere with daily functioning. They may actually improve your attention and problem-solving, motivate you to work harder toward a goal, or warn you about a potential threat.

As anxiety moves along the spectrum from normal to clinical, a gray area in the middle may still have a negative impact on your life: the “almost anxious” region. When the level of anxiety you experience is no longer adaptive or helpful to your performance and becomes a barrier to your enjoyment of life, but does not yet meet the diagnostic threshold for an anxiety disorder, you are “almost anxious.” You might find yourself struggling to focus your attention on tasks, distracted by negative thoughts, fear, or unpleasant body sensations.
