Anxiety disorders are common, and you do not have to face them alone. According to the “Economic Burden of Anxiety Disorders”, a study commissioned by the ADAA and based on data gathered by the association and published in the Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, anxiety disorders cost the U.S. more than $42 billion a year, almost one-third of the $148 billion total mental health bill for the U.S.
Continual fear. Insomnia. Racing thoughts. Fear or dread. You have trouble concentrating at work, and you don’t feel present around your family and friends. You experience regular headaches, digestive issues, body pains, or exhaustion that is unexplainable by medical illness.
You are suffering from anxiety.
The aforementioned five Anxiety Disorders can cause devastating and endless amounts of anxiety, fear, and interfere with daily living. Counseling is one way to work on anxiety. Most specialists agree that anxiety disorders are caused by a amalgamation of both biological and environmental influences. Individual therapy can help individuals learn coping skills to accomplish their anxiety. Cognitive-Behavioral therapy has been found to be effective in the treatment of many anxiety disorders. Additionally, some individuals may benefit from medication therapy in combination with psychotherapy. Anxiety Disorders often include symptoms such as the following:
• Restlessness or “on edge”
• becoming easily fatigued
• trouble concentrating (or mind “going blank”)
• irritability
• muscle tension, aches, or soreness
• trouble falling or staying asleep, or unsatisfying sleep
• excessive worry or obsessions
• heart racing
• trembling
