Anxiety Disorders
Anxiety disorders are characterized by negative thoughts and physical symptoms that revolve around the perception of irrational fear or overestimation of actual threat. Anxiety disorders include:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Causes pervasive anxiety about a wide variety of events, situations, or activities.
Panic Disorder
Recurrent panic attacks (rapid heartbeat, difficulty breathing, nausea, tingling sensations, numbness, sweating, disorientation, and intense fear revolving around loss of control or fear of death).
Phobias
Extreme/irrational fears and avoidance of specific situations, places, creatures, or things.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
People with OCD experience repeated and unwanted urges, thoughts, or images (obsessions) and feel driven to take repeated actions in response to them (compulsions). It is worth noting that some OCD cases don’t display clear compulsive behaviours or rituals (as in excessive cleaning or checking behaviours) but rather purely mental compulsions in connection with their obsessional thinking.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
A condition marked by nightmares, flashbacks, startle response, anger/irritability, distressing intrusive thoughts, hypervigilance, difficulty concentrating, and other symptoms after experiencing a traumatic event.
Complex PTSD
This condition includes the same symptoms of PTSD in addition to more severe interpersonal problems, difficulties in regulating emotions, dissociation, and other symptoms following repeated/recurring or long-term traumatic events such as childhood abuse, and sexual abuse.
