Overview Mental health disorders

Anxiety, a prevalent psychological condition characterised by excessive worry, fear, and heightened stress, poses a significant challenge to individuals across Australia and worldwide. The statistical evidence underscores the noteworthy impact of anxiety, with an estimated one in four Australians likely to confront an anxiety disorder during their lifetime.

The recognition of this pervasive presence of anxiety necessitates a collective response aimed at fostering a society that embraces compassion, empathy, and understanding. Central to this response is the imperative to prioritise comprehensive mental health education, combat the persistent stigma surrounding anxiety disorders, and forge pathways to accessible and effective mental health services that cater to the diverse needs of individuals.

Anxiety symptoms and signs

1. Excessive Worry: Feeling persistently and uncontrollably anxious, often about various aspects of life, such as work, relationships, or health.

2. Restlessness: Having difficulty staying still, feeling on edge, or experiencing a sense of restlessness.

3. Fatigue: Feeling tired or having low energy levels, even without engaging in physically demanding activities.

4. Difficulty Concentrating: Finding it hard to focus or concentrate on tasks, experiencing mental fog or racing thoughts.

5. Irritability: Having a shorter fuse and being more easily irritated or agitated than usual.

6. Muscle Tension: Experiencing muscle tension, tightness, or physical discomfort, such as headaches or stomach aches.

7. Sleep Problems: Having trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing restless, disturbed sleep patterns.

8. Panic Attacks: Episodes of panic, characterised by abrupt and intense waves of fear or unease, are one of the distinct aspects of anxiety disorders. These episodes can occur unexpectedly and are often accompanied by various physical manifestations. Rapid heartbeat, difficulty breathing, and chest discomfort are among the physical symptoms that may accompany such distressing experiences. It's crucial to remember that seeking professional guidance is vital if you or someone you know is grappling with these alarming episodes, as proper diagnosis and support are essential for managing and alleviating such distress.

9. Avoidance Behaviour: Avoiding situations or places that trigger anxiety, leading to limitations in daily activities or social interactions.

10. Social Anxiety: Feeling significant distress or fear in social situations, worrying about being judged or embarrassed by others.

Should these symptoms endure over time, impede daily activities in a significant manner, or generate distress, it is highly recommended to consult a trained professional. By doing so, individuals can undergo a comprehensive assessment and access the necessary support tailored to their specific needs. It is important to prioritise one's mental well-being and seek appropriate guidance when warranted.
