Both stress and anxiety are very personal experiences. What is stressful for one person may not be for another. Anxiety may range from mild apprehension to panic attacks and phobias. Panic attacks are often associated with agoraphobia.
Many sufferers of agoraphobia can become prisoners in their own homes. Phobias involve your fear being directed towards one specific object, activity or situation, which is then avoided. For example fear of spiders, flying, enclosed spaces or heights. Many people suffer silently and secretly for years.
Anxiety engages your fight or flight response which presents symptoms of palpitations, chest pains, faintness, being flushed, sweating, shortness of breath, hyperventilation, choking, difficulties in breathing, dry mouth, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, panic attacks and a sense of fear. There is no single explanation for the occurrence of anxiety disorders. Many factors need to be considered. Coping with anxiety can be a lonely and isolating experience. Counselling can help you.
Much attention has been given however to specific types of stress, such as job-related stress. Stress affects all our daily lives and inappropriate levels of stress may have lasting effects. Unfortunately, it is only when stress begins to engulf our daily lives that we consider outside help. And at this point, often further repercussions such as depression or anxiety disorders exist.
There are however, effective treatments and tools for coping with stress and anxiety; even if the stress is simply a result of everyday events. Sometimes, all we need is an empathetic ear and the working skills to get through these tough situations.
If you are experiencing anxiety or stress difficulties which are having a negative impact on the quality of your life, or that of your partner, family and friends, then it is wise to seek the assistance of counselling. There are no issue too big or too small.
