I am referring to the existential crisis. I really don't see how much of a difference there is between it as "restlessness" and a "problematic mental state." That depends on your answer to the question. I'm referring to the former because the latter is nihilism and slow death.
I would say "fear" is momentary. The fright or flight moment. Anxiety is within us, a lasting fear regarding existence (or meaning of our own).
