For Anxiety Relief Suzanne Recommends . . .

What is anxiety?
Anxiety is a general feeling of being worried. Everyone experiences anxiery from time to time as a result of life experiences, but those with generalized anxiety disorder feel anxious frequently or excessively, not necessarily as a result of a particular situation.

How do I know if I have generalized anxiety?
Some of the symptoms of anxiety are muscle tension, trembling, accelerated heart beat (tachycardia), dizziness or impaired concentration, fast or troubled breathing (dyspnea), palpitations, sweating, fatigue, irritability, and sleep disturbances. If you have generalized anxiety you would experience these symptoms often and not as an effect of a situation.

How did I get anxiety?
Anxiety can result from many specific causes, such as an underlying medical condition or drugs you are taking. However, there may be no specific cause. Factors such as genetics and early life experiences may play a role.

What are my options?
If there is a specific physiological cause for your anxiety found then your health care provider can help you treat those symptoms. For anxiety without a physical cause, you can work with your health care provider to find other ways to treat your anxiety. Treatment can vary from trying a method of relaxation to medicine, to counseling. Whatever your cause is for the anxiety deciphers the method of treatment.
Mind-body techniques, nutrition, and herbs may be an effective way to treat anxiety. Progressive muscle relaxation, diaphragmatic breathing, biofeedback, meditation, and self-hypnosis can help you relax and reduce your anxiety. Discuss these options with your health care provider.

A good way to reduce anxiety is by eating healthy and exercising regularly. Here are some suggestions to help you get on the right track and to avoid things that can increase your anxiety.
