Anxiety

Have you felt it?

That feeling like you’ve been exercising, but you really haven’t? The racing heart; shallow, quick breath; moving around like you’re on pins and needles; anxious about what happens next. And then there’s that uncomfortable tension that seems to follow you. It’s hard to relax, difficult to sleep, and you find yourself worried that you’re worrying too much. Or maybe you haven’t worried enough. Do other people see how worried you are?

If you’ve felt it, and it persists, you may be struggling with anxiety.

Just about everyone experiences some anxiety; it’s a normal part of our existence. But everyone experiences it – and reacts to it – differently. “Normal” anxiety can be a casual concern about health or family or relationships. The worry is manageable, temporary, and usually resolved within a comfortable time.

Anxiety Therapy

But with an anxiety disorder, worries can feel insurmountable or overwhelming. The physical symptoms of an anxiety disorder can start to interfere with daily activities. If you’re not sleeping well, you might be late to work or school, or perform poorly once you get there. If you’ve got headaches or body aches or a sour, anxious stomach, you may not feel like joining your friends or family in their fun activities. The effects of anxiety on your mind can be just as difficult. You’d like to be happy, but it’s Just. So. Hard.

There are several types of anxiety disorders, including Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Panic Disorder. Each disorder can display with any of a number of symptoms:

  • Excessive worry
  • Difficulty controlling the worry
  • Difficulty falling or staying asleep
  • Tingly or numbs hands
  • Pounding or racing heart
  • Difficulty breathing
