The human body has several natural responses to fear and stress. One of the most well-known is anxiety. You may feel anxious if you have an important presentation or exam on the horizon, for example. That anxiety may encourage you to study or prepare more efficiently.

For people with anxiety disorders, those feelings can be very intense and may not go away, even after the stressful event has passed. Your worry may be excessive for the situation you are experiencing or appear for no reason at all. In either case, anxious feelings can seriously interfere with your life.

Anxiety is the most common mental health condition experienced by people all over the world. Often, anxiety disorders can be a lifelong issue that affects a person from childhood through adulthood. Anxiety can interrupt your daily life and make everyday objects, situations, and experiences extremely stressful, difficult, or impossible.

Although it is very common, anxiety should not be taken lightly. Anxiety disorders are a serious mental health condition and have the potential to have a significant impact on your life. If you think you may be struggling with anxiety, call or use our online booking tool to speak with a therapist or counselor at Thriveworks in Eugene, OR.

Getting To Know Common Anxiety Symptoms

Anxiety is more than just feeling worried or fearful. Many anxiety disorders can manifest both physically and mentally, varying greatly from one person to the next. Not all people with anxiety have the same experience or symptoms. In most cases, a person’s symptoms can come and go at various intervals and manifest from specific phobias.

People with anxiety often have persistent feelings of stress, fear, or worry that are out of proportion to the situation they’re facing. These feelings sometimes appear or worsen during challenging tasks or events but can also happen for no apparent reason. Some of the common symptoms anxiety can produce includes:

  • Feeling nervous, restless, or tense
  • Sense of impending danger or doom
  • Trouble breathing
  • Increased heart rate
  • Sweating or trembling
  • Trouble concentrating
  • Anger or agitation
  • Sleep disruption

Working with an experienced therapist can help you learn to cope with troublesome anxiety symptoms and keep them from interfering with your life. When you’re ready to schedule your first appointment for anxiety counseling at Thriveworks, you can use our online portal or call our friendly scheduling team in Eugene, OR.

Therapy for Anxiety: What to Expect

Anxiety disorders can cause you to miss out on a lot in life. When you have anxiety, social gatherings, family events, or that great sale at your favorite store can all seem like scary or overwhelming situations. Fortunately, even the toughest cases of anxiety can be treated with the help of a qualified and experienced counselor.

Treating anxiety is not a one-size-fits-all experience. Because there are many types of anxiety and even more potential symptoms, there are also many types of therapy. Your therapist will customize your treatment options to best fit your specific needs. Your personality, emotional state, past experiences, and individual concerns will all be taken into account during this process.

Therapy for anxiety may include a combination of several different therapeutic techniques. Talk therapy, for example, is the most common approach. Your treatment plan may consist of one or more forms of talk therapy, including cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), interpersonal therapy, humanistic therapy, dialectical behavior therapy (DBT), or exposure therapy.

Other coping skills like meditation may be used during therapy sessions. Certain prescribed medications can also help reduce anxiety symptoms. Your therapist may also recommend lifestyle adjustments such as avoiding caffeine or adjusting your exercise regimen.

You don’t have to struggle with anxiety on your own. The mental health professionals at Thriveworks in Eugene, OR are here to help. First-time clients are often able to meet with a therapist within 24 to 48 hours of reaching out.
