Anxiety symptoms can include persistent worry, restlessness, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, irritability, muscle tension, and sleep disturbances. Physical symptoms like a racing heart, sweating, and dizziness are also common.
-
Therapy helps by providing coping strategies, emotional support, and techniques to manage anxiety symptoms. It addresses the root causes of anxiety, helping individuals develop healthier thought patterns and behaviors.
-
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), mindfulness-based therapies, and exposure therapy are particularly effective. These therapies help change negative thought patterns, reduce avoidance behaviors, and build resilience.
-
The duration of therapy varies based on individual needs, but many people see significant improvement within 12 to 20 sessions. Some may require longer-term therapy, especially if they have chronic or severe anxiety.
