For this research paper, I decided to speak about the five major Anxiety Disorders. The disorders include Generalized Anxiety Disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), Social Anxiety Disorder, Panic Disorder, and Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. You might feel anxious when faced with a problem at work, before taking a test or making an important decision. But anxiety disorders involve more than temporary worry or fear. For a person with an anxiety disorder, the anxiety does not go away and can get worse over time. The feelings can interfere with daily activities such as job performance, schoolwork, and relationships.
The feelings of anxiety and panic interfere with daily activities, they are difficult to control and can last a long time. You may try to avoid places or situations to prevent these feelings. Symptoms may start during childhood or the teen years and continue into adulthood. Some symptoms are nervousness, restlessness, feeling tense, sweating, trembling, difficulty sleeping or breathing, etc. (American Psychiatric Association; 2013.) There are several types of anxiety; with there being multiple forms the symptoms don’t change up so that alone can’t help you figure out which form of anxiety you have but speaking with your doctor and learning what causes your symptoms to flare could help narrow it down. Anxiety issues can negatively affect an individual’s associations with companions, relatives, or sentimental accomplices. The two principal ways that anxiety makes keeping up sound connections troublesome are through reliance and avoidance. Social nervousness is the sort of anxiety issue that is frequently connected to the nature of an individual’s associations with others. For instance, somebody with social anxiety may expect that their companions consider them inadequately. Sentiments of desire and inadequacy are normal among individuals with social nervousness, and these inner battles can make individuals close themselves off as insurance from potential agony. Also, individuals with social anxiety may exaggerate their associations with others and become excessively dependent on approval from their companions or relatives. This reliance is undesirable.
In some cases, a person can manage anxiety at home without clinical supervision. However, this may be limited to shorter and less severe periods of anxiety. You can control it by learning Stress Management, Relaxation Techniques, Exercising, replacing negative thoughts with positive thoughts, or having a great support network. When you are unable to manage your anxiety on your own that is when you should seek professional help from either a therapist, psychologist, counselor, or social worker. Standard treatment for nervousness includes mental guidance and treatment. This may incorporate psychotherapy, for example, intellectual conduct treatment (CBT), or a mix of treatment and directing. CBT means to perceive and adjusting the destructive idea designs that can trigger a tension issue and troubling thoughts, limit contorted thoughts, and change the scale and power of responses to stressors. This assists individuals with dealing with the way their body and brain respond to specific triggers. There are also medications that a professional may prescribe you to help aid with your anxiety. Some of the meds are tricyclics, anti-depressants, and benzodiazepines.
Anxiety essentially means you are under perpetual stress as if you are being threatened. This can cause many kinds of problems. Some of the problems it may cause in the individual are digestive, neurological, and cardiovascular, and it can also slow down your immune system. When anxiety comes to play in your everyday relationships it can cause some problems. It can cause you to become too dependent upon the people around you, the people around you may tend to avoid you or you may even begin to avoid the people around you. The side effects that one may experience during an anxiety attack, which can incorporate side effects like peevishness, strain, poor fixation, and absence of rest can clearly influence one’s relational associations with relatives or one’s capacity to do one’s work successfully.
Having anxiety in the workplace can be detrimental to your career. For instance, you may receive a promotion offer but turn it down because it requires some traveling, public speaking, or even hosting meetings. People with anxiety tend to fear how they will look in the eye of the public, so it causes nervousness when in front of their peers. Getting stressed out at work happens to everyone, and it’s perfectly normal. However, stress that is persistent, irrational, and overwhelming and impairs daily functioning may indicate an anxiety disorder.
Dealing with anxiety can make things even more difficult, I for one suffer from anxiety so I know the day-to-day struggle of trying to remain focused, but your brain is going a thousand miles per hour. You must accept that this condition is stuck with you probably forever and you have to learn to tame it.
