Honestly I think we just started paying more attention to the subject. Anxiety is a completely natural survival mechanism: “was that a tiger in those bushes!?”.

Honestly I think we just started paying more attention to the subject. Anxiety is a completely natural survival mechanism: “was that a tiger in those bushes!?”. It keeps us alive.
