Phobic anxiety

There is a difference between natural anxiety and anxiety as a part of mental illnesses. Many people suffer from unrealistic anxiety. In the mild and most widespread cases this might be in the form of

• fear of dentists
• fear of water
• fear of heights
• fear of small enclosed spaces
• fear of the dark
• fear of dogs, cats, snakes or spiders

Most people don't need to be treated for their phobia. But if your anxiety is a big part of your everyday life, you should seek treatment. You will feel better with medicine and psychotherapy.

Generalised anxiety

If you are suffering from a generalised anxiety condition, you are often anxious and nervous about a lot of things. Big and small problems in your daily life worry you so much that you find it hard to concentrate on other things. You also have a number of physical anxiety symptoms. Generalised anxiety can be treated effectively with medicine and psychotherapy.
