Designed to
help people improve their moods by understanding and working with their biological and social rhythms originally developed as a form of psychotherapy for a single clinician and a single patient, the program has since been adapted to work in several different kinds of settings, including inpatient and outpatient groups. A compelling adjunctive therapy for people with mood disorders, emphasizing techniques to improve medication adherence, manage stressful life events, and reduce disruptions in social rhythms teaches patients skills that let them protect themselves against the development of future episodes.![psychological](https://www.helpguide.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/11/man-in-therapy-hands-clutched-350.jpg)

Anxiety can be caused by a number of different experiences which might include: an overwhelming or traumatic event, bullying, a histo ry of addiction, long term health difficulty or difficulties experienced in childhood. There are also a number of conditions which contribute to anxiety sympto ms. These include general anxiety disorder, panic disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder (ptsd). For a more information on anxiety causes please see our anxiety sympto ms and causes post.
If, like many people, you have generalised anxiety disorder (gad) , you feel anxious about lots of things, most of the time, rather than worrying about one specific event. You feel worried, you find it hard to concentrate and sleep, and your appetite might be affected. If you have panic disorder , you suffer from periodic bouts of debilitating panic. You may find that you start to panic about when the next panic attack is going to come, creating a vicious circle. You may also suffer from physical sympto ms, including dizziness, sweating, heart palpitations and more. Some people suffer from very specific types of anxiety, including that of a particular thing or situation, like driving, spiders, or enclosed spaces.
