Anxiety Q&A

What is anxiety?

Anxiety causes feelings of fear, dread, nervousness, or worry. It’s normal to experience anxiety when facing situations that cause stress or have unknown outcomes. For example, you may feel anxious before a job interview or a big exam.

Your anxiety helps you deal with these stressful situations by boosting your energy and helping you focus. Once the stress is over, your anxiety resolves.

However, if you have anxiety all the time about everyday things, you may have an anxiety disorder. Strategies for Success is a psychiatric clinic that specializes in diagnosing and treating anxiety disorders. 

What are the types of anxiety disorders?

There are many types of anxiety disorders. The following types cause similar symptoms but may have different triggers:

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD)

If you excessively worry about your health, money, or work to the point that it affects your ability to manage your daily responsibilities, then you may be struggling with GAD. 

Panic disorder

If you have frequent panic attacks, you may have a panic disorder. Panic attacks occur without warning and cause severe physical and emotional symptoms that may last several minutes.

Social anxiety disorder

Social anxiety disorder causes intense feelings of fear and nervousness during social situations. 

Phobias

Phobias cause intense fear and worry about things that cause little or no danger, like fear of spiders or flying.
