Abstract
According to the World Health Organization, in developed countries, mental health accounts for more disability than any other group of illnesses. About 25% of adults in the United States are reported to have a mental illness. Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent class of mental disorders faced by individuals in the United States. Although anxiety disorders are treatable, only 34% of people diagnosed receive treatment.
