| There's a difference between anxiety and anxiety disorder.
Anxiety disorder can be a crippling thing, and lead to all sorts of really bad choices. People who feel horrible all the time don't register positive reinforcement the way normal people do, which means there's no reward for good choices. They're prone to develop alcoholism and drug addiction because that's the only way they ever feel good at all.
But "anxiety" by itself is a different thing. So the poll isn't specific enough.
