Info & Do It Yourself Relief
Panic Disorder (With or Without Agoraphobia)
Individuals with panic disorder experience
sudden fear without warning and for no apparent reason. They fear
something awful is going to happen. It is an irrational fear.
They think they’re going nuts or having a heart attack, and as a
matter of fact, many end up in the emergency room with this
misdiagnosis.
Panic attacks can be so disabling that they sometimes prevent
people from leaving their homes. This is considered having a
panic disorder with agoraphobia, which is a fear of open spaces.
Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
Post traumatic stress disorder or PTSD usually
stems from some terrible event or events. A number of military
personnel exposed to war come home with PTSD . It is brought
about when an individual has been involved in something traumatic
or has been in situations of extreme danger.
Experiencing nature’s wrath like earthquakes, tsunamis,
tornadoes, or being a victim in a physical or sexual assault are
other examples of events that can cause PTSD.
Constant flashbacks, nightmares and agonizing memories of the
incident(s) are symptoms of this disorder.
Social Phobia or Social Anxiety Disorder
People with social anxiety disorder (SAD), also
known as social phobia disorder, are very self-conscious and are
in constant fear of being judged or watched by others. Sometimes
this condition manifests in certain situations like when one is
asked to speak in public. Having problems with being
assertive when the situation calls for it is also a symptom of
this disorder.
Individuals with this disorder tend to retreat and avoid places
or events which include other people, unless they feel totally
comfortable with the surroundings. They are afraid their actions
might cause embarrassment or be made fun of.
They not only avoid uncomfortable situations, but also spend
numerous hours worrying about what people think of them and their
behavior.
A specific phobia is when there is extreme fear
of a specific object or situation, such as fear of heights or of
flying.
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
Also known as OCD, individuals with obsessive compulsive
disorder are bothered with continuous disturbing
thoughts and fears. These fearful thoughts are called obsessions,
and the rituals they perform are called compulsions.
When you see people repeating certain rituals like washing their
hands because of an irrational fear of germs, or cleaning
something over and over again, OCD is most probably present. Some
people succumb to OCD when they feel anxious, and some of the
rituals can be quite strange.
You’ve probably observed some people spend numerous hours
fluffing pillows or pulling at their hair. And when you attempt
to stop their rituals, they become really frantic and extremely
distraught, showing signs of extreme anxiety.

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
General anxiety disorder (GAD) involves chronic,
unrealistic and unnecessary worry when there is no logical reason
for it. Afflicted individuals are never contented or have peace
of mind, but don’t know the reason for the discontent.
It is possible that people with generalized anxiety
disorder symptoms have hidden concerns that have not been
addressed or disclosed. Women are more susceptible to this
disorder than men.
