Anxiety Counseling

But when anxiety becomes too overwhelming and/or starts affecting your daily life, then it’s not just anxiety. It can be Anxiety Disorder. Anxiety Disorder can be disabling and debilitating. Just being in a constant state of being anxious and afraid and worrying is exhausting. But how do you know you have anxiety or how you’re feeling is just a normal anxiousness as a response to stress?

Anxiety Disorder, at Large

Anxiety Disorder comes in many forms. It could be a general worry about many things or everything, panic attacks, phobias, social anxiety, separation anxiety, hypochondria, and even medically-induced anxiety.

Each type of anxiety presents in various forms. These include, but are not limited to:

• • Restlessness
  • A hovering feeling of impending doom or danger
  • Sweaty and tingly hands
  • Shortness of breath or hyperventilation
  • Palpitations
  • Tensed Muscles
  • Dizziness

When your anxiousness becomes difficult to control and starts to interfere with your everyday activities, it’s time to get you some help. Learn how to deal with Anxiety Disorder and stop affecting your life too much. On the other hand, there are also people with high functioning anxiety. These are people who have learned to manage their anxiety to a level where they manage to live a normal life and even excel at work or school. The nagging thoughts and worries are still actively present, but they hide it well, so it does not affect their life as much.

Although there are no exact known causes of anxiety, several factors contribute to the disorder. These include environmental factors, genetics, brain chemistry, trauma, and even medications.
