Introduction

You Are Not Alone and You Are Not to Blame

Teens who suffer from anxiety often think of themselves as weak, stupid, or any of many other negative labels. You may think you are the only one who feels things this way and that everyone else is normal.

The thing is, normal doesnt exist. Everyone feels anxiety, and in a surprising variety of situations. Some feel it in a crowded cafeteria, others in an empty hall. Many people panic giving an oral report while others feel panic at random times for no apparent reason. The star quarterback who shouts audibles loud enough to be heard above the roaring crowd may get so anxious around the girl hes attracted to that he is unable to string two words together. Depending on the situation, almost everyone can feel overwhelmed with anxiety.

There are anxious teens all around you. Studies show that anxiety is the most common mental health problem in America, affecting nearly one in five people. If you are sitting in a classroom of thirty students, chances are that at least a row of you are suffering from one of the seven most common varieties of anxiety: social anxiety, generalized anxiety, separation anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder, specific phobias, panic, and agoraphobia. The reason you are unaware of your anxious peers is that they are just as good at hiding their anxiety as you are.
