Anxiety is a mental health disorder characterized by feelings of worry, or fear that are strong enough to interfere with one’s daily activities.

Most people can relate to feeling nervous about an upcoming interview or test. Some stress and small amounts of anxiety may be helpful in driving us to accomplish our goals. These feelings show that we are living life and that we are reaching new expectations in order to fulfill our desires. But sometimes our stress can become too much and it holds us back from living a fulfilling life interfering with daily activities such as; schoolwork, job performances and relationships. . .

 

Anxiety & Stress Can Effect Your Daily Life

Sometimes our stress can become too much and it holds us back from living a fulfilling life interfering with daily activities such as:

  • Schoolwork
  • Job performances
  • Relationships

Over 30% of the population may experience anxiety related symptoms at some point in their life and numbers are on the rise.

Stress can come in a variety of forms such as emotional, physical or chemical. Any combination of these has the potential of leading to dysfunction of various regions in the brain.

Once this happens, the nervous system often loses its ability to regain balance. People can then end up in a state of unrelenting stress and anxiety.

Anxiety brain centers

People can often have more than one area of the brain involved and therefore have any combination of feelings.

Anxiety associated with the Lower Brain Stem may often be accompanied by:
  • Nausea
  • Heart Burn
  • Digestive changes like increased or decreased bowel movements
  • Vertigo or Dizziness
Anxiety associated with the Upper Brain Stem may often be accompanied by:
  • Stress with panic attacks
  • Light and sound sensitivity, making the person feel worse
  • Anger outbursts
  • Fast flickering movements or repetitive sounds can be overwhelmingly irritating
Anxiety associated with the Basal Ganglion may often be accompanied by:
  • repetitive thoughts that they cannot stop

Anxiety associated with the Frontal Lobe may often be accompanied by:
  • the feeling of depression associated with their anxiety
  • difficulty making decisions
  • not feeling motivated
  • not having enough energy to get through the day
  • feeling slow or sluggish
Anxiety associated with the Temporal Lobe may often be accompanied by:
  • a variety of “odd” sensations
  • visual or auditory hallucinations
  • strange feelings in the person’s body
  • loss of short-or-long term memory
  • feeling like you are not totally connected to your body
  • feeling like you cannot completely “fit in” with the world

Traditionally, healthcare professionals recommend interventions such as psychotherapy, cognitive behavioral therapy and medications. In many cases traditional treatments offer tremendous help, but what if you didn’t respond to the traditional treatments or if it was only able to “take the edge off” for you?
