Definition of Anxiety – When Stress Goes Out of Control

In principle anxiety doesn’t have to be bad, we can’t simply jump to the definition of an illness, in fact according to the National Institute Of Mental Health; anxiety is defined as a normal reaction to stress. It usually helps people to deal with a number of stressful situations, for example; a tense situation in the office, study harder for an exam, keep focused on an important speech, etc. In short we could say that anxiety is good for our survival when it’s present in normal amounts.

But the real problems begin when this normal anxiety starts getting out of control and suddenly you find yourself completely overwhelmed by anxiety feelings, and apparently you can’t find a way out of these feelings and recurrent thoughts, and getting rid of this intimidating sensations presents as an impossible task to do. Once this has happened we know that anxiety as turned into an illness.

From what has been said above, the definition of anxiety, as an illness, can be stated as a medical illness involving the feelings of intense fear, anxiety or worry. This feelings can be associated with specific objects or situations or the feelings can simply appear, apparently from nowhere and causing the patient to modify many of his daily life routines and sometimes seriously impeding the developing of a normal life. In short, an anxiety illness could be defined as the presence of excessive worry and fear without an apparent reason to feel so.

Anxiety disorders can be subject to a sub classification, for example we have: obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD), panic disorders, social anxiety disorder, specific phobias and generalized anxiety disorder. They are all variations of the same out of control anxiety involving your life and your mind plays a big role in letting the feelings stay or get rid of them, you just have to know how to do it. For your surprise it doesn’t have to be hard and can be faster than you think.
