Why is this important?

Evidence suggests that people with anxiety disorders are at greater risk for developing a number of chronic medical conditions. Anxiety often goes unidentified as a source of other disorders, such as substance abuse or physical addiction, that can result from attempts to quell feelings of anxiety

Depression is one of the major risk factors for suicide and self-harm. Increases the chance of risky behaviors such as drug or alcohol addiction. It also can ruin relationships, cause problems at work, and make it difficult to overcome serious illnesses. Depression takes a serious toll on physical health as well.
