i had my cbt through anxiety uk and it has been a really positive experience treating my generalised anxiety disorder. The anxiety uk team is very professional and helpful and i was actually recommended by a friend who also had a positive experience with their cbt. I would definitely use anxiety uk again if i needed to!

According to the anxiety and depression association of america, anxiety disorders impact over forty million adults in the united states age eighteen and older. This means every year anxiety disorders impact about 18% of the population. Experiencing anxiety on occasion can be very typical. Anxiety is a natural and normal feeling. Anxiety is also there to help keep you safe. It prepares your brain and body to react. Anxiety can motivate you, protect you, and at times, even challenge you in a good way. While almost everyone experiences anxiety at times, it can reach a point where it feels overwhelming or happens more often than you would like.

Ssris and snris : these two classes were initially prescribed as antidepressants but, more recently, research has found that they might help with anxiety as well. They were named based on how they work in the brain: selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssris) and serotonin-norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (snris). To understand these, some terms need to be defined. First, a neurotransmitter is like a messenger or a runner in a relay race; when an impulse affects a nerve fiber, that fiber then releases a substance (i. E. , the neurotransmitter) that will transfer the message to the next stop along the path, which ultimately leads to a muscle, gland, or other target cells.
There are specific medications prescribed by doctors that help ease symptoms of social anxiety disorder like serotonin reuptake inhibitors (ssris). Some examples include fluvoxamine maleate (luvox), paroxetine (paxil, pexeva), fluoxetine (prozac, sarafem, selfemra), sertraline (zoloft), and citalopram hydrobromide (celexa). Anti-anxiety medications are also prescribed to treat social anxiety disorder. For instance, benzodiazepines like alprazolam xr or lorazepam may be used for treating short-term episodes of anxiety attacks. The above information should help sufferers of social anxiety disorder better understand what they suffer from and how best they can be treated accordingly! there is no reason to be ashamed of your condition anymore.
