This is anxiety that leaves you unable to live a normal life and may put your relationships and job in danger. Three of the most common types of anxiety are generalized anxiety disorder, social anxiety disorder, and panic attacks.

     

    • Generalized: Generalized Anxiety Disorder is a constant, daily worry about little things with no reason for the worry. You may have trouble sleeping, be depressed, and feel a constant weight or tightness in your chest. You spend most of your day worrying about one thing or another. Generalized Anxiety Disorder can develop both in childhood and as an adult. It usually happens after a traumatic event or time of extreme change. Dealing with it by yourself can be extremely difficult. If you seek out professional help, you can have the tools you need to move beyond it and take control of your life.

       

    • Social: Social Anxiety Disorder is the extreme fear of unfamiliar or new social encounters. This means that meeting new people, talking to strangers on the phone, or being in crowds can make you feel very scared and even make you feel paralyzed. Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a common way to treat this and seeking help can help you have a life full of friendship and normal social interaction.

       

    • Panic Attacks: A panic attack is a feeling of overwhelming anxiety that causes shortness of breath, a pounding heart, and fear that you can’t overcome. If this happens frequently, it could be a panic disorder. It usually leaves a person unable to leave their bed or house and keeps them from a social life.Seeking the help of a trained psychologist can help you overcome these attacks and take back control of your life.

When you seek help for this, you’ll gain coping tools to overcome the fear and be able to drive. This may include learning a calming mantra.

     

  • Sexual Assault: Whether you were sexually assaulted as a child or an adult, it can have a lasting, traumatic impact on you. Sexual assault is any touch or exposure that you do not give explicit permission for. If you were sexually assaulted, it is not your fault!

  • Grief: Dealing with death can be one of the hardest, but most common, experiences. Whether the person died quickly or slowly, you can miss them and have trouble accepting their death and moving on. This is ok and completely natural.

Seeking Help

​

Most people could benefit from seeing a counselor at some point in their life. Even if you’re able to deal with most of your problems yourself, having a dedicated partner can help you remain healthy and even get ahead.
