What Is Anxiety?
While experiencing anxiety occasionally is perfectly normal, anxiety disorders are a different story. Anxiety disorders are a group of mental illnesses that cause the patient to experience constant, overwhelming anxiety. This can cause the patient to avoid certain situations such as social situations, school or even work. There are various types of anxiety disorders, which include but are not limited to:
- General Anxiety Disorder
- Panic Disorders
- Agoraphobia
- Social Anxiety Disorder
- Selective Mutism
- Separation Anxiety
- Specific Phobias
About Panic Disorders
Panic disorders are categorized by having at least two panic attacks (an overwhelming and terrifying feeling of danger when none is present). Due to these panic attacks, the patient begins to worry and even modify their routine in an attempt to avoid having another panic attack. Panic disorders are a type of anxiety.
What Is Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?
Obsessive compulsive disorder (also known as OCD) is a mental illness which results in unwanted thoughts, obsessions and compulsions that are repetitive. Certain patients may experience both obsessions and compulsions.
Medication Management for Anxiety, Panic & OCD
When it comes to treating anxiety, panic disorders and OCD, medication is often recommended for patients. Different medications can provide relief for some of the symptoms experienced by the patients who suffer from these disorders. Medication management is provided to ensure the patient is responding properly and thriving as best as possible.
OCD, Panic & Anxiety Therapy
Along with medication, psychotherapy is highly recommended for OCD, panic disorders and anxiety as well. During psychotherapy, patients and their families can gain a better understanding of the condition and how to thrive with it.
