Each form of anxiety has its own set of symptoms and treatments.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIt is important to remember that, while some symptoms will overlap, No two anxiety disorders are alike.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThis list aims to bring attention to the five major anxiety disorders and what they mean for the sufferers.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWe at psych2go hope to bring awareness to the growing number of anxiety sufferers and their needs.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSo without further ado.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nHere:’s, five anxiety disorders, as well as their symptoms and treatments, Number one is obsessive-compulsive disorder or OCD.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nObsessive-compulsive disorder technically has two components.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe obsessions and the compulsions Obsessions can encompass anything from a severe fear of germs to the placement of things around the home, and many things in between The compulsions are what the sufferer does to rid themselves of those obsessive thoughts.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSomeone who has obsessions about germs may ritually wash their hands or carry hand sanitizer everywhere they go.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSomeone who has obsessive thoughts about the placement of objects might arrange and rearrange their belongings until they feel just right. These obsessions and compulsions can become very intrusive and disrupt the sufferer’s daily life.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nAs far as treatments for OCD go.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThere are a couple.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThere are selective, serotonin reuptake inhibitors, such as fluoxetine sertraline.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThese medications are meant to help alleviate the symptoms of the sufferer so that they are at a manageable and less destructive level.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe other widely used treatment is psychotherapy.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWith this, you might run into cognitive, behavioral therapy that will be used to help the sufferer essentially reprogram their response to obsessions and compulsions.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nFor the most part, medications and therapies are used in tandem to get the best results.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nNumber two generalized anxiety, disorder, Generalized anxiety, disorder, or GED is a bit unlike the other anxiety disorders on this list.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThose who suffer from GED aren’t always able to give a reason for their symptoms. One of the symptoms is a general feeling of restlessness or ease.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThey may also experience worry as one of the symptoms.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nEveryone worries from time to time, but GED causes the sufferer to eternalize those worries and take them to an entirely new level.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThey may think of them in an obsessive manner, which will cause a downward spiral of other symptoms, such as a disturbance in sleep patterns.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe treatments available for GED are similar to those of OCD Medications and therapy, Though in this case, the medications may be benzodiazepines and antidepressants, rather than the run-of-the-mill SSRIs Cognitive behavioral therapy is used with GED, as well as relaxation techniques and mindfulness Number.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThree social anxiety disorder, Those with social anxiety, disorder, experienced panic, attacks related to social situations.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThis can manifest in a fear of public speaking or stage fright and can be so severe that they avoid going into public altogether.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSocial anxiety can also have symptoms of severe self-consciousness and a general fear of being around others.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSomeone with social anxiety might find it hard to speak when other people are present, even if they aren’t addressing the crowd as a whole.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/images.pexels.com\/photos\/7203956\/pexels-photo-7203956.jpeg?auto=compress&amp;cs=tinysrgb&amp;h=650&amp;w=940\" \/>\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nSocial anxiety is mainly treated with SSRIs and therapy, As we stated before, just because a treatment option looks similar from one anxiety to another. It isn’t going to be the same.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nEach sufferer presents their own needs that must be taken into account.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nEach therapy isn’t going to work the same for each Personalization of treatment is key in these situations.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nNumber four panic disorder.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nUnlike the other anxiety disorders on this list, panic disorder rests solely on panic attacks With many other anxiety disorders.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nPanic attacks are just another symptom when it comes to panic disorder.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThose attacks are the symptom.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nPanic disorder is characterized by recurrent panic attacks.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe sufferer may experience heart palpitations erasing pulse an intense fear and the feeling that they are hopelessly out of control There.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThere isn’t a rhyme or reason to many of these attacks, so the sufferer is essentially lying in wait for the next one to come, Panic disorder can be treated in many ways. The medications used are some that we’ve heard of such as benzodiazepines and SSRIs.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nWe are also introduced to serotonin-norepinephrine, reuptake, inhibitors or SNRIs, and beta blockers.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThese medications, as with OCD, are often used in conjunction with therapy to help maximize the usefulness of each Number.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\n5 post, traumatic, stress, disorder, Post, traumatic, stress, disorder or PTSD can be diagnosed in anyone For the most part.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYou have probably heard it when someone speaks about veterans or police officers, While those careers have a higher rate of PTSD.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIt is in fact, true that anyone can be diagnosed with it.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nPtsd is the result of a very traumatic event or series of events.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThis leaves the sufferer with flashbacks and night terrors, where they feel as if they are right back in the event again, The sufferer may also suffer from panic attacks, as well as phobias, associated with people places or even sounds Medications such as fluoxetine venlafaxine may be used In the treatment of PTSD Therapies such as prolonged exposure, cognitive processing therapy, and brief eclectic psychotherapy may be utilized as well Again.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThis is a situation where the use of medications and therapy together can help give a better outcome than just one alone.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nIt is important to note that those with PTSD can lash out in certain situations, But there is no need to be afraid of the sufferers. There is nothing inherently dangerous about them.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThose with mental illness are exponentially more likely to be the victims of violent crimes than they are to be the perpetrators.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThis is not a complete list of the different anxiety disorders out there by any means, nor is it completely comprehensive in each description.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThere are many kinds of anxiety these just happen to be the most talked about and diagnosed at this particular moment, Regardless of which anxiety disorder.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nThe diagnosis, it is important to remember that the sufferer needs help and acceptance.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\r\n\r\nYou don’t have to understand anxiety to be able to offer an ear to talk to, or some words to keep them grounded in the moment Remind the sufferer that they are alright, that what they are feeling are just symptoms of their anxiety, and that it Will pass if, given the time Aside from that, just make sure that they know you are there with them and wait it out?
