Understanding the Facts and Anxiety disorders

Understanding the facts and anxiety disorders, are more common than other psychological disorders. The trait of anxiety is that the patient is focused on the future, focusing on the dangers or unfortunate events that may be difficult to control in the future. These events often do not necessarily occur, but patients are still overly worried.

Understanding the Facts and Anxiety disorders

In the face of mild anxiety, most people are able to temporarily put aside their anxiety and continue to work around. However, some people continue to be under constant anxiety for a long time, and irrational fears and worries are seriously affecting their daily lives.

The
anxiety of the generalized anxiety disorder
is not necessarily related to a particular thing. It may be caused by psychological conflicts and tensions. External stimuli only happen to happen as triggers. The patient is not worried about yesterday's mistakes all day long, that is, he is worried about the problems that may occur tomorrow, and it is difficult to enjoy the existing life. Their anxiety can also cause physical symptoms such as sweating, muscle tension, dizziness, rapid heartbeat or diarrhea.

Specific phobia
this is an evasive response, based on extremely dangerous and illogical estimates of certain things or circumstances. Such as fear of flying, fear from the heights; fear of sealing small space (claustrophobia) such as elevators; or empty places; afraid of animals, such as snakes, spiders, cats, dogs, etc.; afraid of storms; afraid of bacteria, filthy Things, even people, blood, darkness or death. Patients often know that their fears are irrational, but they are unable to control their own anxiety.

City fear and phobia disorders (panic disorder and agoraphobia)
The main symptoms of phobias, panic is repetitive intense experience, deeply affected daily routine functioning of patients. Fear patients who go to the clinic for treatment sometimes have some symptoms of phobia. 

Acuity is fear of being in a situation of escaping or being unable to rescue, such as being alone, in a crowd, waiting in line, on a bridge or on a bus. Therefore, patients usually avoid these occasions, and simply stay at home and rarely go out, which may seriously damage their social opportunities.

Obsessive -compulsive disorder
some people's anxiety is expressed by persistent thoughts and compulsive behaviors. Obsessive compulsive dysfunction includes distressing thoughts that continue to be unrestrained and compulsive repetition of meaningless and styling behaviors such as repeated hand washing, showering, washing the ground (commonly known as "clean sputum"), checking doors and windows, etc.

People who are obsessive with obsessive-compulsive disorder usually know that these thoughts and behaviors are weird rather than rational, and they don't want to do it but can't help but continue to do it. Because usually after doing it, the anxiety will temporarily level off until the next anxiety comes back.

In addition to some factors of anxiety disorder, the cause of this disease is combined with another possible factor. Recent research has shown that patients' cognitive abilities are biased, that is, when they think about something, they represent that they have done it. For example, the idea of ​​having an abortion is morally just like having a baby. 

Therefore, patients are extremely uneasy about their "bad" thoughts, so they must suppress, but the more they suppress their thoughts, the more they will emerge in their minds.

There are many possibilities for the cause of the cause, which can be divided into the following categories:

Physiological factors - the patient's physiological response is stronger than the average person; when something happens, the body is in an excessively active state, such as an accelerated heart rate and elevated blood pressure.

• Psychological factors - patients are prone to anxiety and focus on problems that may arise in the future.
• Environmental stress - negative life events such as frustration, failure or physical illness.
• Physical health problems - such as heart disease, hyperthyroidism, hypoglycemia, or side effects from certain drugs such as nicotine, alcohol, and drugs.
