Anxiety is a feeling of unease such as worry or fear that can be mild or severe, at a point in the life of everyone. Feeling anxious can result in one way or the other either by setting for an exam or learning something new. And depression is a sad, low self-esteem. Some people feel this way from time to time which affects cts the physical and mental state of an individual.

going further or achieving your goals due to fear of failing. Which give that awkward feeling of confusion and depression is not having the zeal to carry-on.
Living a life of anxiety is a norm, everyone in a particular time in their life needs to deal with it in one way or the other.
For me it wasn't different. After my high school, I wanted to get a job so that I can earn few bucks. At the beginning it seems easy, getting to wakeup very early in the morning and get ready for work but after a few days at work I began feeling anxious because it was like I wasn't getting anything, I waste materials which were ment for the job did like a thousand mistakes a day but yet I never gave up although there was a time I wanted to buy due to the encouragement by people around me gave me the courage to carry on. After a few months at my place of work I later understood the job and I began doing fine. At this point I wasn't anxious anymore because I have conquer that fear of anxiety and am putting this code in everything I do. According to Dorothy M. Neddermeyer "Life is ten percent what you experience and ninety percent how you respond to it." this tells us how important it it to have a code to live by no matter how anxious one can be.
According to James Lincoln Collier "Even as children we discover this when we try to expand ourselves by, say, learning to ride a bike or going out for the school play.

In the article by James Lincoln Collier He said "I went on doing those frightening interviews, and one day, as I was getting onto a plane for Washington to interview columnist Joseph Alsop, I suddenly realized to my astonishment that I was looking forward to the meeting. What had happened to those butterflies? "
This shows that a certain time in one's life when one has being in a state of anxiety for a long time, he develop a a kind of shield between himself and anxiety making one the master and having total control of one's self.
Anxiety and depression is not something that is cured with drugs or being on medication, it is cured with the positive change in the way we think, our perspective about things that often make us anxious. As James Lincoln Collier stated " I was doing some writing about music. And one person I particularly admired was the great composer Duke Ellington. On stage and on television, he seemed the very model of the confident, sophisticated man of the world. Then I learned that Ellington still got stage fright. If the highly honored Duke Ellingto
