Anxiety Disorder Depression - Cures For Anxiety

At any one time approximately 5% of us suffer from Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Statistics tell us that 2/3rds of those professionally diagnosed are women although it is now recognized that an unknown number of male anxiety sufferers may well deny their condition so as to keep it hidden.
It is perfectly normal and healthy to worry about specific concerns or problems. Normal is when the problem is solved, the cause of the anxiety goes away and the anxious feelings disappear. Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is when you feel anxious without real cause and when it starts to have an impact on your ability to sleep or function well in your day to day life, you should then recognize you have a problem and that it is time to seek assistance.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder is very often accompanied by headaches, drowsiness and feelings of lethargy. Sufferers can become accustomed to the condition and will often treat the symptoms only by taking pain killers for headaches and coffee fixes as pick me ups. Besides being only a temporary fix the caffeine is recognized as being instrumental in intensifying feelings of anxiety and so often adds to the sufferer’s difficulties.
More pronounced anxiety can be coupled with elements of depression, personality disorders and /or alcoholism. Unresolved it can lead to even more serious life limiting conditions like extremely disturbing panic attacks and acute social discomfort.
Self medication and substance abuse should be avoided as temporary highs are only a short term solution and will ultimately cause more long term suffering.
