MADNESS -1
Ego is a Center of Consciousness. Ego growth is necessary in understanding and dealing with the world. Ego growth is dependent on genetic factors like memory, intelligence etc. and external factors like nurturing environment.
When our difficulties, conflicts appears greater than our Ego’s capacity to deal with it, we experience ANXIETY. When our difficulties, conflicts produces loss and our Ego cannot immediately digest it, we experience SADNESS and DEPRESSION. When our difficulties, conflicts creates situation when our Ego is overwhelmed of unconscious, we experience MADNESS. This could be simple situation or Very complex situation.

ANXIETY
Anxiety is a response to threat. Function of anxiety is to prepare us to deal with it. Physiological response of fight or flight.
UNKNOWN is always greater and infinite than KNOWN, as it is limited. UNKNOWN is potentially threatening as we do not know what it would produce. It may confront us with friends or foes or both. Hence unknown situations are always threatening and produce anxiety. Normally we deal with anxiety with two responses. Firstly trusting ourselves, that while ago I had met with similar situation successfully and recognising I have capacity to meet such situation. Sometime getting encouragement from our elders and friend. Seconding meeting or confronting unknown situation. When we recognise that we have met unknown situations successfully, we grow in confidence, means that our trust in our ability- our Ego capacity grows.
With some people, they are so hooked into negative experiences of past, some are so self-critical, some are so guilt laden or some are so convince of their inferiority that they cannot appraise their situation realistically. They cannot grow in confidence, even they have dealt with unknown situations successfully. These are the people who suffer chronic anxiety.
For me, going to new town or places were always source of excitement and I never hesitated. But since mobility difficulties and my restrictions, brings me anxiety when I am required to go to new place. In order to reduced anxiety, I have to do homework, to find out where can I find suitable parking. Sometime I have to make arrangements of parking beforehand.
