Anxiety is a normal emotion that causes increased alertness, fear, and physical signs, such as a rapid heart rate. The causes of anxiety are always not easy to isolate but anxiety disorders occur when a person regularly feels disproportionate levels of distress, worry, or fear over an emotional trigger. No one knows exactly what causes anxiety problems, but there probably lots of factors involved and can happen at anytime depending on daily engagement though common in the early hour of the day. Some of the causes are:
- Environmental factors
- Genetics
- Medical factors
- Brain chemistry
- Use of or withdrawal from an illicit substance
- some psychiatric medications
- some medications for physical health problems
- recreational drugs or alcohol.
- exhaustion or a build up of stress
- long working hours
- being out of work
- feeling under pressure while studying or in work
- having money problems
- homelessness or housing problems
- losing someone close to you
- feeling lonely or isolated
- being bullied, harassed or abused.
Anxiety is highest at the early morning hours. That is why the risk of heart attack peaks at that time. Gradually, it reduces during the day as a person involves in routine work.

I feel more anxious about things to complete in the day early morning and then feel relieved a little bit at 2-3pm because I recognize that I already got most of the to-do-lists done. After that, I also feel a little bit tired so have a short nap. Lastly, I feel anxious again late evening, mainly about the remained works and new to-do-lists to complete in next day. Work, in particular, research work is endless, I think.
Maham Muzamil this is an excellent question. Thanks for posting it to RG.
