FeelJoy Mobile App — An App to help you deal with Anxiety
Anxiety is the feeling of nervousness and worry constantly for weeks or months. Everyone experiences temporary feelings of anxiety at some point in their life be it during exams, or before a job interview but if these feelings are intense and does not go away then it might be anxiety disorder.
According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), “anxiety disorder refers to a specific psychiatric disorder that involves excessive fear or worry. It includes generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder and panic attacks, agoraphobia or claustrophobia, social anxiety disorder, selective mutism, separation anxiety, and specific phobias.”
While temporary feelings of anxiety cease when the stressful period is over, anxiety disorder tends to stay for weeks and adversely affects a person’s physical and mental health. Difficulty in sleeping, dizziness, irritable bowel syndrome (IBD), depression are all linked with anxiety.
According to various researches, it has been found that anxiety affects people of all ages, particularly children, teenagers and adults. Women are more likely to be affected than men.
Anxiety disorders are highly treatable and yet only one third of the affected population has been able to get treatment. Psychiatrists and doctors have said again and again that mental health disorders such as anxiety and depression are as serious as physical disorders. Anxiety not only triggers abovementioned problems but can also lead to other serious issues also such as bipolar disorder, drug/alcohol abuse, body dysmorphic disorder, etc.
