Understanding Anxiety & Depression: Symptoms & Solutions
Are you experiencing constant worry, unexplained sadness, or a feeling of being overwhelmed? You're not alone. Anxiety and depression are more than just feeling stressed or sad. They can manifest in various ways, impacting your daily life. Recognising the symptoms is the first step towards healing:
Anxiety Symptoms:
- 1Excessive Worrying: The cornerstone of generalised anxiety disorder (GAD), characterised by persistent and excessive worry about various topics, events, or activities.
- 2Restlessness or Feeling On Edge: An uncomfortable urge to move or a feeling that you can't relax, often manifesting as physical symptoms like fidgeting.
- 3Fatigue: This often accompanies anxiety and is not always related to physical exertion. It's a type of weariness that may be present even after adequate rest.
- 4Difficulty Concentrating: People with anxiety may find it hard to focus or remember things, which can affect performance at work or school.
- 5Irritability: A lesser-known symptom, where individuals may have a lower tolerance for stress and get easily agitated.
- 6Sleep Disturbances: Trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or experiencing unrestful sleep are common with anxiety disorders.
Depression Symptoms:
- 1Persistent Sadness or Low Mood: A profound sense of sadness or emptiness that doesn’t go away and can interfere with daily life.
- 2Loss of Interest or Pleasure: A diminishing interest in activities or hobbies once enjoyed, also known as anhedonia.
- 3Changes in Appetite or Weight: Significant weight loss or gain due to a decrease or increase in appetite.
- 4Feelings of Worthlessness or Guilt: Persistent self-criticism or feeling disproportionately guilty about past failures.
- 5Physical Symptoms Without Clear Cause: Headaches, stomach aches, or other physical pains that do not have a specific medical cause and do not respond to treatment.
- 6Fatigue or Loss of Energy: Feeling excessively tired and a lack of energy almost every day.
Understanding the Signs: It's important to note that experiencing one or two of these symptoms on their own may not necessarily indicate a disorder. However, if you or someone you know is experiencing multiple symptoms consistently for more than two weeks, it might be time to seek professional help. Remember, acknowledging the symptoms is a vital step towards healing and recovery.
