Milan, the second largest city of Italy, has won an undesirable world record. Of the 54 big cities studied by the World Health Organization and the United Nations, Milan is considered to have the worst air pollution. According to these two10-year studies, the level of air pollution in Milan is twice as high as the levels in Paris and Beijing and three times those in Tokyo and London, and four times that in New York. The reason for Milan's bad pollution, to some experts, is that the city lies in a valley that holds back the poisonous gases. Though Milan has taken some measures to lower the level of pollution, the situation is still worrying. People joke to each other, "If you are traveling to Milan, be sure to bring your gas mask."

Have you ever been in a situation, where you felt uneasy because of something you think you may have forgotten to do or perhaps a feeling that you annoyed someone whom you wanted to get along with really well. If you have experienced such feelings and worse on a regular basis, then you most probably are a victim of anxiety attacks.
All of us, to some extent, have experienced anxiety at different levels. There are somethings you may know about anxiety, and some things that you may not be familiar with. So in order to be prepared for your unexpected feeling of anxiety, you need to get to know what anxiety is before it escalates into a panic attack.
Anxiety is simply the feeling of discomfort, uneasiness or fear of what may eventually happen resulting from an imagined, or a real threatening condition. On the extreme end panic attacks can occur due to heightened(增加) feelings of anxiety.
There are two main symptoms(症状) during an anxiety / panic attack and these are physical and emotional symptoms. Physical symptoms include difficulty in breathing, shaking, direct feeling of heat, rapid heartbeat and tiredness while emotional symptoms deal with worrying, depression, fear, and lack of focus.
In spite of the negative impression we have for anxiety, it is not dangerous in any way whatever. The feeling of anxiety is not bad, in fact it’s more of a defensive feeling which protects us from possible danger by engaging a response within us in fight or fight situations. So it’s not the “bad guy”, you just have to learn how to control it. Panic attacks, however, are far more dangerous and should be a concern to your health. Panic can sometimes result in blurred (模糊不清的) vision, difficulty in breathing due to a tight chest. The best way to different anxiety from any serious illness is to ask a medical expert for advice on a regular basis.

Most people are aware that outdoor air pollution can damage their healthbut many do not know that indoor air pollution can also have significant health effects.Environmental Protection Agency studies indicate that indoor levels of pollutants may be 35 timesand occasionally more than 100 timeshigher than outdoor levels.These levels of indoor air pollutants may be of particular concern because most people spend about 90% of their time indoors.

There are many sources of indoor air pollution in any home.These include sources such as oilgascoalwoodand tobacco productsbuilding materialswet or damp carpetand furniture made of certain pressed wood productsproducts for household cleaning and maintenancepersonal careor hobbiescentral heating and cooling systems.

Immediate effects may show up after a single exposure (暴露) or repeated exposures.These include irritation of the eyesnoseand throatheadachesdizziness.Such immediate effects are usually short?term and treatable.Sometimes the treatment is simply removing the person’s exposure to the source of the pollutionif it can be identified.

The likelihood of immediate reactions to indoor air pollutants depends on several factors.Age and pre?existing medical conditions are two important influences.In other caseswhether a person reacts to a pollutant depends on individual sensitivitywhich varies tremendously from person to person.Some people can become sensitized to biological pollutants after repeated exposuresand it appears that some people can become sensitized to chemical pollutants as well.

Certain immediate effects are similar to those from colds or other viral (病毒性的) diseasesso it is often difficult to determine if the symptoms are a result of exposure to indoor air pollution.While pollutants commonly found in indoor air are responsible for many harmful effectsthere is considerable uncertainty about what concentrations or periods of exposure are necessary to produce specific health problems.People also react very differently to exposure to indoor air pollutants.Thereforefurther research is needed to better understand the effects of indoor air pollution and to find efficient ways to protect our health.
