Treating someone with anxiety highly depends on the nature of the condition and their individual preferences. Often, therapists and doctors suggest a combination of various treatments for effective results. Research has revealed that in many cases, depression and other mental illnesses are directly linked to anxiety as one of the common symptoms. In a survey conducted across 44 countries, the prevalence of anxiety disorder ranges between 0.9% to 28.3%; the highest prevalence in the United States of America. Researchers claim that gender, age, cultural differences, conflict and economic status are some daunting factors that account for a greater proportion of this condition. This blog will evaluate the three ways in which one can get out of this mental condition.
Self-Care
Relaxation is deemed to be one of the effective ways to address anxious emotion before they develop into a major disorder. It is human nature for everybody to feel anxious and in many cases, people can manage this emotion without any clinical supervision. Some of these include yoga, meditation, deep-breathing exercises, long-baths and resting in the dark.
With relaxation, people should also indulge in exercises and other physical activities that will release chemicals in the brain-stimulating positive emotions. With physical activity, it is always advisable to develop and discover new hobbies. In this way, people will be able to try something new that will improve their concentration instead of doing the same mundane tasks.
