Anxiety is an insinuation of fear, terror, and angst. It could be a normal stress response. It could lead to sweat, uneasiness, stress, and increased heartbeats. For instance, one can feel uneasy when faced with a complex situation at work or before making a crucial decision.
Everyone experiences anxiety at times throughout their life. To be precise, some anxiety is a normal and biologically helpful response to certain types of stress. Anxiety is not always bad; besides providing what can sometimes be a constructive motivating force (for example, worrying about providing for a family motivates a head of household to work hard and get a promotion), it can also keep our loved ones and us safe from danger. Understanding the difference between commonly occurring anxiety and a diagnosable anxiety disorder that is disruptive to daily life and requires professional intervention is essential.
Anxiety can get triggered due to habits, life experiences, and troubles that feel out of control. It can cause people to feel tense and uncomfortable, with racing thoughts, uneasiness, irritation, and difficulty concentrating.
The causes of anxiety may include:
If you have been experiencing any of these anxiety causing factors, we suggest you seek help. You can reach out to Lifebulb using our 24x7 active helpline, or you can search for us online, simply use ‘anxiety counseling near me,’ ‘anxiety counselor near me,’ ‘anxiety therapist near me,’ ‘anxiety counselors near me,’ or ‘anxiety therapy near me.’
Anxiety feels different depending on the person encountering it. Emotions can vary from a racing heart to having butterflies in the stomach. You may feel out of control like there's a detachment between your mind and body.
You may have a general sense of fear and worry, or you may fear a specific place or event. In some cases, you may undergo a panic attack.
Symptoms of anxiety can include:
Your anxiety signs might be different from someone else's. That's why it's essential to know how anxiety can show itself.
Here is a list of five main categories of anxiety disorders:
Disorder of Generalized Anxiety - Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is characterized by persistent anxiety, increased worry, and tension, even without a trigger.
Disorder of compulsive behavior (OCD) - Recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions), and repetitive activities are hallmarks of obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), an anxiety disorder (compulsions). People frequently conduct repetitive actions like hand washing, counting, checking, or cleaning to stop or eliminate obsessive thoughts. However, engaging in these so-called "rituals" only temporarily reduces anxiety, while abstaining significantly raises it.
Panic Disorder - Anxiety disorders like panic disorder are sporadic, acute episodes of fear followed by physical symptoms like shortness of breath, heart palpitations, chest pain, nausea, and stomach discomfort.
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) - Anxiety disorders such as PTSD or post-traumatic stress disorder can appear after exposure to a terrible experience in which severe bodily injury happened or was threatened. Brutal assaults on individuals, natural or human-caused disasters, accidents, and military combat are a few traumatic events that might trigger PTSD.
Social Phobia (or Social Anxiety Disorder) - Extreme self-consciousness and overpowering anxiety in everyday social situations are symptoms of social phobia, commonly known as a social anxiety disorder. While social anxiety is at its worst, people may constantly feel symptoms with others. Examples of situations where social phobia may be restricted include fear of speaking in formal or informal settings, eating or drinking in public, and speaking in front of others.

At Lifebulb, our biggest difference lies in our therapists. Many practices, large and small, often put growing businesses before growing people. It may sound simple, but at Lifebulb, we treat our therapists like valuable people that provide a valuable service. What does that mean for our clients? While we believe therapists and counselors, regardless of where they work, do their best for their clients, we've found that therapists who genuinely enjoy where they work are able to provide higher-quality services and ideal anxiety counseling treatment to those they help. To that end, our primary goal at Lifebulb is to provide our therapists with the best possible environment in which to operate. In doing so, we believe Lifebulb clients are best positioned to accomplish their therapy goals through in-person counseling or virtual therapy.
