About anxiety
- when unease becomes debilitating
All types of anxiety disorders are associated with severe or long-lasting feelings of uneasiness, which may prevent a person from leading a normal life. Sufferers can develop a range of physical and psychological symptoms that can be highly debilitating. There are various types of anxiety disorders, which include Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Acute Stress Disorder (ASD), Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), and phobias. Anxiety disorders can occur alongside other conditions, such as depression, schizophrenia, or bipolar disorder, and can lead to self-harm or suicide in severe cases.
Anxiety Disorders Symptoms and Effects
Mild anxiety can be a positive defense mechanism in some circumstances. However, when anxiety is severe and endures for months or years, it can interfere with an individual’s ability to lead a healthy life. Physical anxiety disorders symptoms can include stomach pains, diarrhea, heart palpitations, dry mouth, chest pains, shaking, dizziness, difficulty swallowing and shortness of breath. Psychological symptoms can include insomnia, constant feelings of worry or unease, tiredness, lack of concentration, feeling irritable or angry, and a general feeling of detachment or loss of control.
