For instance, if you have an upcoming exam, this is the type of anxiety that motivates one to study harder in order to be successful on the exam In the mild level of anxiety, vital signs are normal. However, there is often increased awareness of one’s surroundings in the moderate level of anxiety. There is a mild increase in heart rate, a moderate increase in muscle, tone, subjective feeling of worry or apprehension, and narrowed perception. Then we have severe levels of anxiety and panic disorder. These two levels are considered pathological, which means they are abnormal. The severe level of anxiety causes the pupils to dilate diaphoresis, increase muscle, and rigidity, and cause urinary frequency, diarrhea, and sweating profusely. Panic disorder, on the other hand, causes significantly increased symptoms. However, today we’ll be focusing on the mild, moderate, and severe levels of anxiety in our future series. We will address the diverse types of anxiety, which will include panic. Disorder Anxiety is considered pathological When it is disproportionate to events When it is sustained over a long period of time When it impairs one’s function And when it is clearly unrelated to any identifiable event or situation in a person s life, This type of anxiety interferes With perceptions memory, judgment and motor responses, so they require professional treatment and therapeutic intervention, Initially anxiety present as several physical illness states, People experiencing anxiety may complain of chest, pain, heart palpitation, sweating and even feel as if there about to have heart attack.
