Anxiety
Anxiety is a normal part of living.
Everyone experiences anxiety to some degree. It shows up physically as a racing heart, flushed face, a churning stomach, or clammy, shaking hands. It’s that sensation of being on the edge of a roller coaster drop, but nobody wants to feel that way all day. Yet for some, anxiety doesn’t go away when it’s time to socialize or perform daily tasks. So, how can you tell when anxiety is no longer a typical reaction? Many people remain uncertain, and this keeps them from seeking the help they need.
Anxiety often manifests in ways that go unrecognized. It can appear as low self-esteem, constantly criticizing yourself, or holding back your thoughts and feelings due to fear of embarrassment. You may find yourself avoiding nerve-wracking situations, like forming new relationships or facing social interactions. Some feel trapped in cycles of negative thoughts, convinced they’re unloved or a burden. Relaxation feels impossible, and when something embarrassing happens, it’s all you can think about. This can lead to difficulties with sleep—whether falling asleep, staying asleep, or feeling exhausted all day. Constantly worrying about your mental state can make matters worse. And many of the patients we see initially believe they’re the only ones going through this. If only they knew how common these feelings are!
Every individual’s anxiety is shaped by their unique life experiences and challenges. That’s why we perform a comprehensive assessment to craft a tailored treatment plan that addresses the specific struggles you face. There’s no one-size-fits-all solution here.
