Common anxiety triggers include work, relationship, and other life stresses, withdrawal from drugs or certain medications, side effects of certain medications, exacerbation of past trauma, chronic pain, caffeine, smoking, and stress. It's also important to remember that everyone's triggers may vary.

Once you have a better understanding of your triggers, you can start to look for ways to avoid or minimize them.
