Amy thought she knew what anxiety was—but she’d never experienced it herself until now. She was used to hearing, “I feel anxious today,” or, “My anxiety is out of control.” But she now realizes that these people weren’t experiencing a full-blown anxiety disorder like she currently is.

Have you ever felt like Amy? She experiences out-of-control fear and worry the majority of the day, every day. There isn’t any distinguishable, warranted reason for her fear and worry either. She just can’t help feeling on edge. Amy started feeling this way after her parents got divorced—a heartbreaking and life-changing event. 

This is typical for people with anxiety and other mental health disorders. They don’t exactly understand why they feel the way that they do. However, their symptoms often stem from an event or experience. Mental health disorders aren’t simple. Fortunately, mental health experts specialize in assessing and treating them. 

If you are experiencing anxiety, it’s important that you talk to a mental health professional about it. They can bring light to your situation, offer a greater understanding, and help you manage your symptoms. If this sounds like something you need or could benefit from, reach out to Thriveworks Counseling in El Paso, TX. We’re here to help you with your anxiety. 

What Type of Anxiety Am I Dealing With?

Anxiety is characterized by out-of-control worry, as we described earlier with Amy. Often, there is no warranted cause of this worry or fear. In other instances though, there are specific events or triggers that bring on the individual’s anxious thoughts and feelings. 

Here are some of the most common types of anxiety:

  1. Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD): GAD encompasses the anxiety that comes with many different events and circumstances. This is, perhaps, the most widely known.
  2. Social anxiety disorder: Social anxiety or social phobia is another common type of anxiety. With social anxiety, the individual experiences anxiety in social circumstances.
  3. Obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD): OCD is also common and widely known. With OCD, the individual feels compelled to perform certain behaviors, like wash their hands multiple times or double-triple check that the door is locked.
  4. Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD): PTSD is another common and widely known form of anxiety, but many people don’t recognize it as such. The anxiety that comes with PTSD stems from an event that leaves the individual traumatized. 

All of the above are anxiety disorders that can cause significant distress and interfere with important areas of life. For this reason, it’s important that anyone who experiences symptoms of anxiety sees a professional.

How Can Mental Health Services Help My Anxiety?

Anxiety isn’t easy to control or manage on your own. While self-care activities—like journaling and exercising—can help you mitigate and relieve anxiety, therapy is often necessary to help one get their anxiety under control. 

In addition, medication, like anti-anxiety medication, is a good fit for certain individuals. This kind of medication can lessen one’s anxiety symptoms while they work with a therapist to get to the root of the problem. 

We want you to feel comfortable and empowered to make meaningful progress with your anxiety counselor. Our professionals are all skilled, caring, and experienced. And they’ll use their passion and expertise to help you live a happier, healthier life again.
