ANXIETY

There are three types of anxiety: realistic anxiety, neurotic anxiety and moral anxiety.

 

Realistic anxiety is the fear of danger from the external world, and the level of such anxiety is proportionate to the degree of real threat.

 

Neurotic anxiety is an emotional response to the threat that unacceptable id impulses will become conscious.

 

Moral anxiety occurs when the ego is threatened by punishment from the superego, it is also an ensuing emotional response.
