This workshop provides brief information about anxiety through various theories and self-help modalities to increase awareness and management of anxiety as a disorder.

The relationship of stress and the ability to cope provides a basic understanding of how anxiety can develop into a disorder. Participants are also taught to identify the different signs and symptoms of anxiety and techniques for self-care and self-help. The importance of seeking help from professionals is also emphasised through dissemination of community mental health resources available in the neighbourhood.
