The economy. The holiday season. Large crowds. Too much to do and not enough time to get it done! Any one of these situations could be a trigger for anxiety. Everyone feels anxious from time to time, but some suffer from anxiety more often than others, to the point where it begins to interfere with their quality of life. Like many conditions, the term 'anxiety' can cover a number of disorders that range from panic attacks to post-traumatic stress disorder. The core symptoms and treatment of this condition are similar for all forms of anxiety.
The signs of an anxiety disorder can be physical and/or emotional. Some people may have many symptoms, and others won't have more than a couple. Anxiety is something that everyone experiences given the appropriate trigger, but what makes it a disorder is when the symptoms take over your life. They may prevent you from doing things that you enjoy, or from being able to relax and unwind. If you experience a number of the below symptoms to a high degree, you may want to consult your doctor for treatment.
Physical Emotions May Include:
- shortness of breath
- headaches
- upset stomach
- tight muscles
- insomnia
- sweating
Emotional Symptoms May Include:
- feeling jumpy
- nervous anticipation
- irritability
- restlessness
- inability to think clearly
There are various behavioral and medical treatments for severe anxiety. The first step is to identify what particular situations make your anxiety worse. What can you do to minimize those conditions, and how can you build a support system to alleviate your worries? Many find a combination of behavioral and chemical therapy works best for them. Behavioral treatments can include learning more about what triggers your worry, learning relaxation techniques, or confronting your fears in a safe and supportive environment. There are also many medications
that can help you, some to be taken regularly, and other to be taken before you enter a situation that you know will cause you anxiety.
Anxiety disorders don't have to take over your life. Getting diagnosed is the first step towards gaining control. If you have some symptoms of an anxiety condition, see your doctor to help you determine the cause of your symptoms, and find the best treatment for you.
