Anxiety is a normal mental response to being threatened, under pressure, or stressed. It can provide you with a much-needed energy boost, help you pay attention, make you aware of risks, and drive you to solve problems.
However, when anxiety becomes continuous and hard to control, it becomes a problem that can severely decrease your quality of life. Excessive fear or anxiety that is severe and out of proportion to the existing situation can indicate a mental health problem. Fortunately, anxiety disorders are highly treatable no matter how long you’ve felt anxious or how severe your symptoms are.
What Are the Signs of an Anxiety Disorder?
Excessive and persistent stress about ordinary situations is the hallmark of an anxiety disorder. These disorders push your anxiety beyond the typical feeling of worry into a full-blown panic attack. If you have an anxiety disorder, you experience sudden and intense fear that far surpasses the need for whatever situation you’re in.
Anxiety disorders are a group of conditions characterized by excessive fear in non-threatening situations. Signs that you may be suffering from an anxiety disorder include:
- Difficulty thinking about anything other than what you fear
- An increased heart rate
- Rapid breathing
- Tense muscles
- Trembling
- A feeling of impending doom or panic
- Sweating
- Feeling jumpy
Symptoms of anxiety are part of your body’s natural fight-or-flight response, with one big difference, such as:
- This evolutionary instinct heightens alertness and prepares you to run or defend yourself when necessary for survival. Your adrenalin kicks in when you feel anxious.
- While beneficial when you’re truly in danger, if you suffer from an anxiety disorder, the fear and stress are unnecessary and counterproductive. You’re not really in mortal danger.
- Eventually, the intensity of your feelings can cause you to change your lifestyle to avoid situations that might trigger them. You shun social settings and other triggers.
