Anxiety
Panic
Here
is a list of some symptoms of a panic attack or
stress:
- Shortness
of breath
- Distressed
- Trembling
or shaking
- Nausea
or stomach distress
- Fear
of losing control or going crazy
- Hot or
cold flashes
- Palpitations
or pounding heart
- Chest
pain or discomfort
A key
symptom of chronic stress is anxiety that is persistent over
a long time (longer than 6 months) and widespread on a wide
range of events or activities (such as work or school
performance), not being restricted to a particular situation
in phobias or appeared only in the form of crisis, as in the
case of panic disorder. The state of almost permanent
anxiety, fluctuating slightly during the day and affecting
the quality of sleep.
Anxiety is
often linked to concerns over (called apprehensive
expectation). For example, fear that a close relative or
person who suffers from this disorder may have an accident,
illness or death. The person finds it difficult to control
this state of constant concern.
Anxiety
and worry are associated with 3 or more of the following
symptoms:
- Nervousness,
restlessness or impatience
- Fatigue
(tiredness) easy
- Difficulty
concentrating or making the mind blank
- Irritability
- Muscle
tension, tremor, headache (headache), a movement of the
legs and inability to relax
- Sleep
disorders: difficulty in reconciling or maintaining sleep
or waking up feeling tired
- Sweating,
palpitations or tachycardia, gastrointestinal problems,
dry mouth, distressed, hyperventilation (increase in the
number of breaths per minute)
- Stress,
worry or physical symptoms cause significant discomfort
or a deterioration in family relationships, social,
occupational or other important areas of activity of the
person.
Stress
symptoms in generalized anxiety disorder are constant
unlike what happens in panic disorder where panic-anxiety
appears as paroxysmal and usually lasts no more than 30
minutes but leaves the patient with a lot more fear to feed
a new crisis. This "fear of fear" is called "anticipatory
anxiety" and can be confused with generalized anxiety
disorder. It is also important to rule out that the symptoms
of stress are not due to the intake of any substance or
stimulant: caffeine, amphetamines or a medical illness (e.g.
hyperthyroidism).
Generalized
Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
is much
more than what a normal person experiences in their daily
lives. Chronic tension and concern prevails even if there
was no real cause to provoke these symptoms. The suffering
in this disorder means always anticipating disaster, often
overly concerned with health, money, family or work.
However, sometimes the root of this concern is difficult to
locate. The mere fact of thinking, or addressing the day can
cause anxiety.
Case
Report
"I always
thought I was apprehensive. I felt restless and could not
rest. Sometimes these feelings came and went. Other times
they were constant. They could last for days. I was worried
if I was going out for dinner to prepare for the party or
what would be a great gift for someone. Just could not leave
anything behind. It was this tension that I experienced that
at times made me desperate. A horrible feeling.
He had
problems sleeping. There were stressful times when waking in
the morning or in the middle of the night, sweating and
shivering. I worked hard to concentrate even while reading
the newspaper or a book. Sometimes I felt a bit distressed.
My heart beat was too fast or hit me in the chest. This
worried me even more. all day long I was concerned about
what could happen, could not concentrate on the present, or
routine tasks. I had about three weeks listening to the
self-hypnosis and was like a miracle, now I control my own
emotions, I relax when I want to relax."
Treatment
of panic, stress and anxiety
Treatment
of Generalized Anxiety Disorder includes the use of specific
forms of medication and psychotherapy, the most effective
treatment for GAD typically combine psychotherapy and
hypnosis, hypnotherapy.
Symptoms
of stress and panic depend on the culture, age and sex:
There is
considerable variation in terms of cultural expression of
stress (e.g. in some cultures the anxiety is expressed
through somatic symptoms and other symptoms through
cognitive). It is important to take into account the
cultural context to assess the excessive nature of some
concerns. In children and adolescents with generalized
anxiety disorder, anxiety and concerns tend to refer to the
performance or competition in the school or sports, even
when these individuals are evaluated by others. Sometimes
time is the issue that concerns focused excessive. Other
times, catastrophic events like earthquakes or nuclear war.
Children who have the disorder can be displayed openly
conformists, perfectionists, and unsure of themselves
inclined to repeat their dissatisfaction by excessive work
in the light of the results fail to reach perfection. In
pursuing the approval of others may show a suspicious
characteristic; excessive need to ensure the quality of
their performance or other issues that motivate their
concern.
In
general, the symptoms of GAD tend to decrease with age.
The
disorder is slightly more common in women than in men when
studying samples of medical centers (approximately 55-60% of
diagnoses are made by women). In epidemiological studies of
the general population of women is two thirds for
women.
