What Causes Anxiety?
what causes anxiety attacks What Causes Anxiety?There are a myriad of reasons that may cause anxiety to surface through the form of physical symptoms. For every person that suffers from anxiety, the cause may be different but the underlying physiological changes that occur within the body are similar. Here are some of the main reasons that anxiety may surface within the body:
- A stressful situation that the patient has been dealing with. This can cause immediate anxiety when faced with the situation or can cause a generalized anxiety that can contribute to general anxiety disorders when the subject is mentioned.
- Fears are often a high cause of anxiety in some patients, especially when these patients are forced to come into contact with the fear or have thoughts about facing the fear. For this reason, the patient may choose to avoid the aspect which is causing fear and anxiety.
- Chemical imbalances in the brain have been linked with the cause of generalized anxiety disorder in which there is no known for reason for the patient to appear anxious. This can be the most dehabilitating type of anxiety as the patient is unable to predict triggers that may cause an anxiety attack.
Knowing the cause of anxiety can help the patient to avoid certain triggers or create coping methods to reduce the anxiety which is felt during an attack.

Me too, it is a horrible thing, especially when it just hits you suddenly without warning.

Re: What Causes Anxiety?
Easier isn't allways better especially when it comes to mental health :P What about the experience makes you so upset? for my part I used to get upset with people whom would get annoyed with me or when they criticized me, mind you they were in the right most of the time but I couldn't take it, my heart would race and I would get VERY emotional I took every thing personal. Now I take a breather always try to have a smile on my face (think happy, lame but it works for me); try to see where they are coming from and that they are treating me no different than the other 6.5billion people out there. Doesn't work all the time, but its MUCH better than before... now rejection is another story
Take-Care and don't be too hard on your self, its never too late.

It saddens me to hear that you are so unhappy in Adelaide. I actually suffer from depression and anxiety and am planning on moving to Adelaide for a fresh start at the end of this year. It really seems like a safe and quite place as i have been over there to see my friend a good 6 times now. I hope it is not Adelaide itself that is causing your anxiety because i was intending on leaving the anxiety here in Perth, because i feel it is the type of people here in Perth that are causing it.

Re: What Causes Anxiety?
Hey Anxley,
I agree with your post and also your comment's on anxiety are quite right...
In that situation the person suffering from that kind of the disease doesn't
understand what to do and what to not to do....????
In this condition a specialized doctor will manage his condition and take him back to the
normal life....

Scientists have three potential causes, and have broke them down into three parts, brain chemistry, heredity, and life experiences.

I think it is you will that would equip you with tools to combat anxiety.
If you are strong at nerves then you can fight back and take over anxiety.

genetics, made better or worse
by environmental situations,
basically have to have the existing
"brain make up".
