Coming from a CBT/REBt approach, anxiety stems from your thoughts. Are you putting "shoulds" on yourself? Are you beating yourself up? Are you expecting the world to be kind to you when it hasn't been?
From what I understand from my therapist (and I agree because it has worked for me), depression and anxiety stem from either conscious or unconscious thought.
