Anxiety involves persistent feelings of worry, fear, or apprehension. People with anxiety may experience physical symptoms like a rapid heartbeat, sweating, or trembling, and may find it difficult to control their worries or relax. Depression is characterized by prolonged periods of sadness, hopelessness, or a lack of interest in activities once enjoyed. It can affect a person’s mood, energy levels, and ability to function. Symptoms often include changes in sleep or appetite, fatigue, and difficulty concentrating.
