The present study aimed at exploring the reality and management of anxiety among students with learning disabilities. The study adopted the descriptive critical approach throughout reviewing the literature related to psychological disturbances in general, and anxiety in particular, among students with learning disabilities. The findings of the study revealed that anxiety is more common among learning disability students compared to their counterparts without learning disability. In addition, the study found that there is a significant overlap between the symptoms of anxiety and other psychological disturbances on one hand and the learning disability disturbances on the other hand. Further, the study provided a suggested educational intervention based on building a relationship with students with learning disability, previewing and checking in to reduce the level of anxiety among students with learning disabilities. The study recommends conducting a systematic literature review to provide a research-based evidence regarding the prevalence, management and interventions related to anxiety among learning disability students.
