While anxiety can be a familiar feeling in today's society it can often take a toll on people's lives. The question then arises, is the anxiety a mental illness? While there may not be a straightforward answer to this question, most experts agree that anxiety can be a mental illness.
Anxiety disorders are a subclass of mental disorders characterized by significant feelings of fear and anxiety that occur in response to specific stimuli or situations. These disorders can range from mild to severe and can be disabling. Some of the most common anxiety disorders are generalized anxiety disorder, panic disorder, and obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Anxiety disorders are not just usual fears or worries. They can be disabling conditions that seriously interfere with daily activities. The symptoms can be so severe that some people avoid traditional environments such as school or work.
With proper treatment, anxiety is a manageable condition. Treatments can include TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), psychotherapy, and meditation.
Star Behavioral Health & Roanoke TMS believes that TMS effectively treats anxiety disorders. TMS can help patients identify, understand, and change negative thought patterns contributing to anxiety.
Recognizing the signs and symptoms of anxiety and seeking professional help is essential. Sometimes understanding the condition, discussing fears, and learning coping mechanisms are vital. Recognizing that anxiety can be a mental illness is a step forward in the right direction toward addressing and treating the condition.
