Is anxiety just some imprecise term developed by our verbal community? Or does anxiety refer to a specific series of private events that can affect human behavior? Well, we've spent over an hour discussing the who's, what's, and where's of anxiety in the hopes of coming to some sort of a conclusion. I don't know if we do, but at least Rob wrote a new song for the occasion!

1:07.8	health as is kind of a comorbid diagnosis or working with students with
1:12.9	mental health issues, you know that there is a lot of research on treatment. However, it feels
