There are a variety of factors that may cause anxiety, and each is unique to you or the person experiencing symptoms. The most common causes include:

  • Genetics
  • A change in brain chemistry (chemical messengers in the brain)
  • Environmental factors like abuse, trauma, divorce, stress , or withdrawal from drugs, alcohol , or nicotine

Anxiety Diagnosis

There are no blood tests  or diagnostic exams your medical provider can do to diagnose anxiety. A typical course of diagnosis includes a discussion about the patient's physical and mental health, consideration of symptoms and a physical exam .

Your diagnosis will be based almost entirely on the severity of your symptoms, how long you have had them and how they are influencing your life.

Anxiety Treatment

Thankfully, anxiety is a very treatable medical condition and there are a variety of treatment choices. Your health care provider will probably suggest starting with medication to treat your symptoms. These may be antidepressants or another class of medications. Remember that these can take six weeks or so to take full effect, so be patient and keep taking them even if you feel like they aren't working.

You may also benefit from therapy  to manage your anxiety. This is especially helpful for men and women who have experienced trauma or abuse. A therapist may be able to help you work through your fears and identify ways to cope.

Other options for treatment include hypnosis, acupuncture, holistic stress management  and a variety of natural or alternative health options. If you are interested in one of these treatment methods, talk with your doctor.
