occupational functioning. When this anxiety is prolonged and affects
social or occupational functioning, it's abnormal and accounts for
anxiety “disorder”.
General presentation of Anxiety
disorders:
Patients often experience a state of intense apprehension,
uncertainty, and fear resulting from the anticipation of a threatening
event or situation, often to a degree that normal physical and psychological functioning is disrupted. This may be precipitated due to several reasons which are generally easily identified by the patient himself. The anxiety is of a greater degree than just everyday worries and patients do mention that they are not able to control these worries. They are frequently accompanied with physical symptoms as well. These symptoms have to present for most days at least for several weeks at a time. Anxiety disorders also manifest as physical symptoms along with psychological symptoms. Some of the common things that patients experience are as follows:
Feeling that something undesirable or harmful is about to happen (edginess and apprehension)
Dry mouth; swallowing difficulty; hoarseness
Rapid breathing and heartbeat, palpitations
Twitching or trembling :: Muscle tension; headaches; backache :: Sweating :: Difficulty in concentrating :: Dizziness or faintness
Nausea; diarrhoea; weight loss
Sleeplessness :: Irritability :: Fatigue
Nightmare
Memory problems
Sexual impotence
