Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety Disorders are the most common psychological disorders in the U.S. with 19.1 million (13.3%) of the adult population (ages 18-54) affected. This number increases when you factor in the high number of adults over the age of 54 who suffer from anxiety disorders.
Anxiety Disorders include:
-
Panic Disorder
-
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
-
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
-
Phobias (e.g., snakes, heights, flying)
-
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
All Anxiety Disorders can cause overwhelming and persistent anxiety, fear, and interfere with daily living.
​
Fortunately, the vast majority of those with an Anxiety Disorder can be helped through a combination of therapy and medications, with medications offering the most immediate relief and therapy providing skills for long-term management.
Anxiety Disorders often include symptoms such as the following:
-
Restlessness, feeling “keyed up” or “on edge”
-
Becoming easily fatigued
-
Trouble concentrating (or mind “going blank”)
-
Irritability
-
Muscle tension, aches, or soreness
-
Trouble falling or staying asleep, or unsatisfying sleep
-
Excessive worry or obsessions
-
Heart racing
-
Trembling
Women are 2 times as likely to be affected than men. Additionally, people with Anxiety Disorders often suffer from other mental health problems, such as depression and alcohol or drug abuse.
