ANXIETY Q&A
What is anxiety?
Anxiety is the fear, nervousness, or worry you feel before and during a stressful situation. Anxiety is normal and something you might feel before a job interview or a big test. Once the stress goes away, so does your fear.
However, if you continue to have feelings of anxiety that worsen over time and affect your ability to go about your daily routine, then you might have an anxiety disorder.
Mercy Seat Mental Health Treatment Center is a psychiatry and behavioral health practice that specializes in diagnosing and treating anxiety disorders.
What are some of the types of anxiety disorders?
There are many types of anxiety disorders. Each disorder has its own set of triggers and unique symptoms. Common types of anxiety disorders include:
- Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)
GAD causes ongoing feelings of dread and fear about everyday things like work or health. The feelings of anxiety are so intense they affect your ability to concentrate and sleep and make you very tired.
Panic disorder
People with panic disorder have repeated and unexpected panic attacks. A panic attack causes intense feelings of fear and physical symptoms like sweating, heart palpitations, and shortness of breath, which last several minutes.
- Social anxiety disorder
Social anxiety disorder causes intense fear about social situations. People with social anxiety disorder fear they may embarrass themselves or be harshly judged by others, so they avoid social interactions.
- Phobias
Phobias are overwhelming fears triggered by a situation or object, like a fear of heights or needles.
What happens during an anxiety consultation?
