Anxiety Disorders

Persistent and excessive fear or worry in everyday situations.

Anxiety disorders are a group of mental health conditions characterized by intense, excessive, and prolonged worry or fear. While occasional anxiety is a normal part of life, anxiety disorders involve persistent symptoms that interfere with daily functioning.

Symptoms

  • Constant worry or fear that is difficult to control
  • Rapid heartbeat or chest tightness
  • Restlessness or feeling “on edge”
  • Trouble concentrating or sleeping
  • Avoiding situations that trigger anxiety
  • Panic attacks (in some types of anxiety disorders)

Diagnosis

Diagnosis involves a comprehensive psychological evaluation by a mental health professional. It may include structured interviews, questionnaires (e.g. GAD-7), and a review of medical history to rule out physical conditions.

Treatment Options

Therapies include cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), medication such as SSRIs or benzodiazepines (short-term), relaxation techniques, mindfulness, and lifestyle changes like exercise and sleep hygiene.
