Anxiety is an emotion that comes from feelings of stress, tension, worry, and changes. Women, assigned at birth as a woman, are more likely to experience anxiety due to the brain system involved in the fight-or-flight response being more readily in women and staying longer activated than men, assigned as man at birth. The neurotransmitter serotonin also plays a role in response to stress and anxiety.

Those just starting college with only 12 units may experience anxiety, which is an uncontrollable feeling of uneasiness or tension compared to those who are accustomed to college who have taken around 48 units. This can be caused by attachment issues, leading students to be afraid of being independent as well as being too cautious on their social appearance.
