      About The Author

      Anxiety disorder is an umbrella term that covers several different forms of a types of common psychiatric disorder characterized by excessive rumination, worrying, uneasiness, apprehension and fear about future uncertainties either base on real or imagined events, which may affect both physical and psychological health. There are numerous psychiatric and medical syndromes which may mimic the symptoms of an anxiety disorder such as hyperthyroidism which may be misdiagnosed as a generalized anxiety disorder.

      Individuals diagnosed with an anxiety disorder may be classified in one of two categories; base on whether they experience continuous or episodic symptoms. Because each person has a unique chemical make up, the type, number, intensity, and frequency of anxiety symptoms will vary from person to person. For example, one person may have just one mild anxiety symptom on a continuous or periodic basis. whereas another may have all the anxiety symptoms and to a greater severity continuously or periodically. All combination are common.

      Current psychiatric diagnostic criteria recognize a wide variety of anxiety disorders, including Post-Traumatic stress disorders, Obsessive-Compulsive disorders, and Panic Disorders to name a few. Collectively, they are among the most common mental disorders experienced by American. The term anxiety covers four aspects of experiences an individual may have: mental apprehension, physical tension, physical symptoms and dissociative anxiety. Anxiety disorder is divided into generalize anxiety disorder, phobic disorder, and panic disorder; each has its own characteristics and symptoms and they require different treatment. The emotions presents in anxiety disorders range from simple nervousness to bouts of terror and can change from one to the other rapidly.

      Just over two decades ago, the emotional disturbance of what is called panic disorder was officially introduced into the discussion among psychiatrists. Since then much research has been ongoing, diverse studies have indicated that 1.5 to 3.5 percent of the population has experienced panic disorder at some point in their lives. Most of these instances go unnoticed.

      It has also been estimated that women get panic disorder about twice as often as men. The disorder seems to appear when a person is a young adult, although it can show up at any age. Everybody experiences anxiety at some time, but anxiety can become so overwhelming that it can interfere with day to day living. Anxiety comes in many forms and in frequency or lesser frequency in cases.

      Sometimes, it is a continuous, unpleasant sense of worry. It can also take the form of a fearful frightening, unexpected attack that may debilitate that person. This can be one of the most terrifying things a person ever experiences. Anxiety Disorders effect about forty million American adults age eighteen and older (18%) in a given year, causing them to be filled with fear, emotional distress, or other feelings that can disrupt their daily lives.

      Anxiety is a real medical condition. It is widely believed that anxiety probably results from a combination of genetic, biochemical, environmental, psychological factors. Research suggests that environment and genetic factors (eg. a family history of anxiety) may make a person more likely to develop the disorder).

      It is also widely believed that anxiety is the result of an imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain that is believed to influence a person’s mood. It is suspected that this chemical imbalance in the brain may impair effective communication between nerve cells, resulting in anxiety.

      WHY DO PEOPLE

      GET PANIC ATTACKS?

      Nobody knows for sure reason why panic attacks happen. In the past most experts thought of panic attacks as emotional problems. They once believed that they happened was because of complicated feelings that were bottled up inside a person for long periods that finally erupt.

      Today most doctors agree that the attacks are caused as a result of environmental and neurological factors. People who suffer from panic disorders usually show signs of below-average levels of serotonin, a type of neurotransmitter that plays a huge role in how well a person sleeps and his or her mood.

      Panic attacks may seem to happen for no reason, but some can be linked to a specific personal problem. A
