Anxiety
There are many factors account for anxiety disorders. Genetics, early childhood experiences,
recent stresses in life, unrealistic expectations about yourself and others, relationship conflicts, alcohol, caffeine, poor
coping skills, and other factors all contribute to the experience of anxiety. People are anxious about things that are
personally relevant to their concerns. You may worry about being rejected, making mistakes, not achieving success, getting
sick, or being abandoned. Furthermore, when you are anxious, you may avoid or leave situations that make you feel anxious
or try to compensate by trying to be overly controlling, overly concerned about approval or by trying to be perfect.
Therapy will help you develop the motivation to modify your anxiety and learn how to distinguish between productive
worries and unproductive worries.
