Anxiety is a condition that can cause changes in your brain, but with holistic, multidisciplinary, consistent treatment, you can overcome anxiety disorders and reduce the amount of fear, stress, and worry in your daily life.

You will always have some kind of stress in your life–that’s just the human condition. However, anxiety treatment helps you learn coping skills and mindfulness techniques that keep negative b experiences or thoughts from spiraling out of control.

With the right treatment team and a commitment to healing, you can live a life that isn’t controlled by anxiety.

Anxiety treatments often include therapies that address previous traumas and negative experiences and help you process them. Doing this kind of internal work can be mentally and emotionally taxing and lead to feelings of shock, depression, and even anger.

The side effects however, are short term. Throughout these therapies, you will come to develop coping skills and life skills that help you work through any negative emotions and overcome them.

There is not a defined timeline for anxiety disorder treatment to take effect. Everyone’s experience with anxiety is different. Your recovery timeline may be shorter or longer than others suffering from the same diagnosis, depending on the severity of your symptoms, the length of time you have been dealing with anxiety, and any other co-occurring disorders that may be present.

It is possible to treat anxiety disorder without medication. Many people with their anxiety diagnosis choose to forgo medication and manage their disorder through individual therapy sessions and support groups.

Although there is still a stigma behind taking anxiety prescriptions, medication management is nothing to be ashamed of. Depending on the severity of your disorder and how you function in your day to day life, medication assisted treatment might be the best option for you as it can help you stabilize your condition while you undergo treatment.

Anxiety disorders aren’t only worrying. Someone with an anxiety disorder is chronically overwhelmed with feelings of fear, dread, and panic. These emotions become all-encompassing and affect how the individual lives their day to day life.

Everyone experiences periods of stress or worry. The difference is that anxiety disorder is not a period of worry, but rather a constant state of emotional turmoil.

Researchers do not understand entirely what causes anxiety disorders, however, chemicals in the brain are suspected to play a role. Long-term or extreme stress can affect the balance of the brain’s mood-influencing chemicals, such as serotonin. When these chemicals are out of balance, an anxiety disorder can develop.

Untreated anxiety can worsen quickly. An untreated anxiety disorder can lead to other disorders such as depression as well as substance use disorder. Often, someone with an anxiety disorder that goes untreated turns to drugs or alcohol to manage their symptoms. Subsequently, an addiction develops.

When the individual finally seeks help, these co-occurring disorders must be treated in order for the person to make a full recovery.
