Anxiety Disorders

Anxiety is the most common psychiatric problem all over the world. It can occur even when there is no obvious situation to cause anxiety. People with anxiety suffer from excessive sweating, increased heartrate, increased blood pressure, restlessness, fatigue, dizziness and a fear of death. Anxiety can cause an excessive and irrational dread of everyday situations that can be disabling.

Anxiety disorders include generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, social anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Anxiety disorders develop from a complex set of risk factors including genetics, brain chemistry and life events.

Anxiety disorders are highly treatable with medication and behavioral modification techniques under supervision of an experienced psychiatrist.
