Anxiety is a normal biological reaction that occurs when you’re under stress that elicits feelings of fear, nervousness, or excitement about what’s to come. You may experience these feelings when starting a new job, giving a speech, or meeting new people.
However, when your anxiety develops in response to routine daily tasks and causes intense or excessive feelings of fear or nervousness, you may have an anxiety disorder. Your feelings of anxiety may be so overwhelming that it interferes with your daily responsibilities.
There are several types of anxiety disorders. The types include:
At Health & Psychiatry, Dr. Sajan and her team perform an initial psychiatric evaluation for all new patients seeking help for their anxiety. She uses the information gathered during the assessment to identify the biological, psychological, and social factors that play a role in your anxiety symptoms.
Based on the results of your evaluation, she develops your personalized treatment plan to help you manage your anxiety disorder. The specifics of your program may depend on the type of anxiety disorder you have, the severity of your symptoms, and your overall health and wellness.
Your treatment plan may include:
People with panic disorders experience sudden, unexpected panic attacks. During a panic attack, you may feel paralyzing fear that leads to physical symptoms such as shortness of breath, chest pain, or sweating.
The team may prescribe anti-anxiety or antidepressant medications to alleviate your anxiety symptoms.
