Uneasiness or fear, often about a situation or condition, is called?

• A. Depression
• B. Delusion
• C. Hallucination
• D. Anxiety

Answer: (D)

Anxiety is a feeling of uneasiness, worry, or fear about a situation or what might happen. It’s that anticipatory response you get when facing uncertain or challenging circumstances. This fits best because depression is a persistent low mood, delusion is a false belief, and a hallucination is perceiving something that isn’t real. In caregiving, you might see anxiety as nerves before a medical test, concern about a loved one’s health, or ongoing worry about safety. So the description points to anxiety.
