Help For Anxiety Disorder

Almost everyone experiences depression or anxiety at some point in life. Anxiety is a natural body reaction to stress. However, when you regularly feel anxious, which continuously interferes with your daily activities, it becomes a problem- this indicates an anxiety disorder. 

How Do I Know If I Have An Anxiety Disorder?

You may be suffering from an anxiety disorder if your answer is yes to any of the following signs.

  • Do fears plague you?
  • Are you constantly tense or worried?
  • Are you experiencing unexpected attacks?
  • Does anxiety interfere with work or family responsibilities?
  • Are you avoiding your everyday situations or activities because of anxiety?

Signs And Symptoms Of Anxiety Disorders 

Besides the signs listed above, emotional signs of anxiety disorders include:

  • Anticipating the worst.
  • Difficulty in concentrating.
  • Watching for signs of danger.
  • Feelings of apprehension or dread.

Anxiety disorder can also show a wide range of physical symptoms, which including:

  • Stomach upset.
  • Pounding heart.
  • Shortness of breath.
  • Shaking or trembling.
  • Diarrhea or frequent urination. 

Causes of Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety doesn’t really have a direct cause, like many other mental health disorders. However, researchers believe that anxiety disorders stem from environmental and genetic factors and brain chemistry.

Genetic Causes 

You’re at greater risk of having anxiety disorders if you have a family history of these disorders. Besides, individuals with traits of shyness tend to be more prone to anxiety disorders.

Environmental Causes

Adults who experience a traumatic event are prone to anxiety. Likewise, children who grow up experiencing abuse or trauma are likely to develop anxiety disorders. 

Brain Chemistry 

Researchers continue to reveal the connection between anxiety and brain chemistry. Neurotransmitters are chemicals found in the brain that allows nerve cells to communicate. When these chemicals are imbalanced, they can cause anxiety and depression. 

Treatment for Anxiety 

Anxiety disorders are treatable. Many people experience relief and improvement in their quality of life with the help of professional care like the team at Omega Recovery. The main treatments for anxiety disorders include:

Medication

Medication can ease the signs and symptoms of anxiety disorders but does not “cure” them. While a particular drug might work for one person, it may have little to no effect on another person. That’s why you require the assistance of medical providers or licensed professionals. Medical providers can diagnose your problem and recommend the right medication for you. 

Therapy

There are several evidence-based therapies used for treating anxiety disorders. These therapies are tailored to the individual’s unique symptoms and treatment needs. Therapies can vary from Dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) to group counseling.
