Are you often stressed? Under a lot of pressure? Mind racing when you need to rest? Struggling to be present? Do you experience issues with digestion, immune system, fertility? Many systems in the body interact with the nervous system and can be negatively impacted when someone is chronically stressed.
Anxiety exists on a continuum. It ranges from normal and common nervous system reactions to stress – which can mean we need help re-prioritizing, learning to say nor or slowing down – to severe, where one can be incapacitated with negative impacts on work and social functioning. Therapy can be helpful regardless of the severity or the source.
Severe and prolonged anxiety response can be a result of trauma, or physiological issues. Its important to have a proper and thorough intake assessment to determine the course or therapy but anxiety is one of the most treatable conditions. Contrary to common misperception, people with anxiety are often very high functioning. They may be perfectionists with very high self standards. They may not feel good about asking for help.
