Many people are needlessly troubled by anxiety, worry, and nervous fatigue - conditions which can ruin health, impair performance, and sap enjoyment from life. Anxiety disorders are the most prevalent and costly of the mental disorders. Over the course of a year, anxiety disorders afflict about one in six adults, more adults than any other type of mental or substance disorder. About one in four people will experience an anxiety disorder over the course of their lifetime. These disorders cost the nation's economy billions of dollars, mostly in indirect costs from reduced or lost productivity. Yet this figure does not begin to reveal the untold, private suffering of individuals. In these anxiety disorders, worry is a prominent feature. When worry is not the primary cause, it significantly contributes to the maintenance and/or increase of symptoms in probably all of the anxiety disorders. This book focuses mainly on helping you understand and overcome the general worries, anxiety, and nervousness that can take the joy from your life and predispose you to anxiety disorders. You'll learn to recognize and understand the unusual symptoms. Then Dr. Schiraldi's clear, complete step-by-step instructions guide you through proven strategies to conquer your symptoms. You'll be helped to develop your own program or to work with a mental health professional. Topics range from hyperventilation to medication, with a rich and extensive resource section. Also discussed are causes of worry, anxiety, and nervous fatigue, the normal and natural courses of anxiety, and locating professional resources and more.
