What Is Anxiety?
Anxiety is a mental health disorder that is characterized by feelings of worry, fear, and unease. It is the most common mental health disorder in the United States, affecting 40 million adults. Anxiety can cause physical symptoms such as chest pain, shortness of breath, and headaches. It can also cause emotional symptoms such as feeling overwhelmed, tense, and nervous.
One of the most difficult parts of living with anxiety is that anxious thoughts are often repetitive, intrusive, and extremely unpleasant. People may experience negative or fearful thoughts about themselves, their loved ones, and the world around them – no matter how irrational they may be. This can lead to significant problems in social interactions and relationships as well as at work.
Types Of Anxiety
Anxiety disorders are a group of mental disorders characterized by feelings of anxiety and fear. Anxiety can be classified into several types. These are:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
It’s an anxious state characterized by persistent anxiety and concerns about tasks, people, or even events. The most important thing is that the worry is out of proportion and has nothing to do with the scenario. It’s tough to keep under control, and it has a significant impact on a person’s physical health. It frequently leads to sadness.
Agoraphobia
Agoraphobia is an anxiety disorder in which you worry about being trapped, helpless, or embarrassed when exposed to certain situations or places. People who suffer from agoraphobia prefer to be alone because they feel secure.
Panic Disorder
Symptoms of this sort include persistent episodes of extreme fear that may occur suddenly and peak in a few minutes. Shortness of breath, chest discomfort, fluttering, or pounding heart are some of the negative effects. When they start recurring, again and again, these characteristics might be distressing.
Social Anxiety Disorder
Social gatherings such as Anxietyget-together or hanging out with friends are avoided by individuals who suffer from this type of anxiety disorder. It’s due to the fear of being judged poorly by the other participants in the group, as well as embarrassment, self-consciousness, and worry about seeming stupid.
Obsessive-compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Obsessive-compulsive disorder is a mental illness that traps people in cycles of obsessive thoughts and compulsive behaviors. People with OCD are plagued by persistent, unwelcome thoughts or images (obsessions), often followed by rituals they feel they must perform to lessen their anxiety (compulsions).
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder
It’s a debilitating condition that can develop after exposure to any event that results in psychological trauma. Symptoms may include flashbacks, avoidance of reminders of the traumatic event, and increased anxiety or emotional arousal (hypervigilance). Explore our stress management techniques for better help.
Specific Phobias
A specific phobia is an intense fear associated with a specific object or situation which provokes anxiety and typically causes sufferers to avoid the feared object or situation.
All of these disorders can have a crippling effect on someone’s quality of life, making it difficult to do everyday activities and enjoy life. However, there is help available. With the right treatment, people with anxiety disorders can lead normal, happy lives.
Treatment options for anxiety
When it comes to anxiety, different anxiety treatment options are available. Some of the most common treatments include therapy, medication, and self-help strategies.

These strategies are generally carried out on your own and can involve anything from developing coping strategies to watching certain types of media. One type of self-help strategy that has become more popular in recent years is anxiety meditation.
