Before presenting our work or when experiencing a very important event such as the birth of a child, for example, it is very natural for us to feel some degree of anxiety.<br \/>\n<\/span><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-9478\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amesuamente.org.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/foto-bressan.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"191\" height=\"182\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amesuamente.org.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/foto-bressan.png 451w, https:\/\/www.amesuamente.org.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/foto-bressan-300x285.png 300w, https:\/\/www.amesuamente.org.br\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/foto-bressan-150x143.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 191px) 100vw, 191px\" \/><\/p>\n<blockquote><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe have difficulty accepting anxiety as a normal symptom of life. A good strategy to overcome such moments is not to think about it. When we try to control anxiety rationally and keep thinking about it, the tendency is for the symptoms to intensify,\u201d explains Rodrigo Bressan, psychiatrist and president of Instituto Ame sua Mente, in an interview with Dr. Drauzio Varella.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>What is anxiety disorder?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But when anxiety is intense and long-lasting, interfering with daily activities, it becomes harmful to mental health. In these cases, it can lead to uncomfortable emotional, physical and behavioral symptoms, such as difficulty concentrating, insomnia, irritability, palpitations and excessive worry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">According to the definition of the Ministry of Health, anxiety disorders are illnesses related to the functioning of the body and life experiences.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>What are the causes that lead to anxiety disorders?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There is no specific cause for anxiety disorders. Among the factors that can contribute to the occurrence of a disorder of this type are:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Genetic predisposition;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Occurrence of traumatic events;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chronic stress;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Troubled family environment;<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">From the point of view of neuroscience, it is interesting to mention that the brain structure itself influences our response to situations, while our life experiences can alter our brain and its functioning. This concerns a group of neurons that are part of the limbic system and are responsible for processing emotions. Research has shown that people with a larger brain amygdala are more predisposed to developing mood disorders, which can progress to anxiety disorders.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>How prevalent is anxiety in Brazil and around the world? How does this disorder impact the population?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anxiety disorders affect around 300 million individuals worldwide and data show that Brazil leads the global ranking in prevalence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">26.8% of Brazilians received a medical diagnosis of anxiety. When we consider the younger population, between 18 and 24 years old, the prevalence of the disease is almost a third (31.6%) and exceeds this mark when we consider the female population (34.2%).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Source: Covitel \u2013 Study conducted in Brazil in 2023 to monitor risk factors for chronic diseases.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>What are the main symptoms and behaviors associated with anxiety disorders?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">People who live with some type of anxiety disorder often experience:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">difficulty relaxing due to exaggerated worries, tensions or fears;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">a continuous feeling that something very bad will happen;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">exaggerated worries about health, money, family or work;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">extreme fear of some particular object or situation;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">exaggerated fear of being publicly humiliated;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">lack of control over thoughts or attitudes, which are repeated independently of the will;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">dread after a very difficult situation.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>What are the main types of anxiety disorders?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There are different anxiety disorders, which can be diagnosed by a psychiatrist. Here are some characteristics and patterns:<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD):<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> general and permanent feeling that something bad is going to happen. GAD constantly generates worry, a lot of fear, agitation and difficulty concentrating, which negatively impacts personal and professional relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>Panic Disorder (PD):<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> also known as \u201cpanic syndrome,\u201d is characterized by acute anxiety attacks, with a strong feeling of fear or discomfort, accompanied by physical symptoms, such as chills or hot flashes, fainting, vomiting or chest pain at the peak of the crisis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD):<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> appears after a very intense mental and emotional event, which generates very significant and persistent anxiety that extends beyond the duration of that event.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>Social Anxiety Disorder:<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> characterized by a disabling fear of any situation that involves being in public. Little by little, it generates isolation that can lead to depression.<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Specific phobias: include specific fears, such as animals, heights, thunder, among others.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD):<\/b><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> relates to thoughts that lead the person to act compulsively, to obsessions \u2013 thoughts, images or impulses that occur frequently, against the person&#8217;s will. In many cases, OCD is linked to cleaning and organization.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>How to identify an anxiety attack?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An anxiety crisis is a mental state in which the body has different symptoms, such as shortness of breath, tremors, tachycardia and sweating. However, you need to see certain details to identify it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Those who have recurring episodes of anxiety always experience physical symptoms, such as tremors, hair standing on end and rapid breathing.\u00a0<\/span><b>In more extreme cases, when the symptoms are strong and there is also chest pain, it is important to go to an emergency room to check whether it is a cardiac episode.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To differentiate anxiety attacks from panic attacks, we can observe that in the latter case, the attacks tend to be more severe with a shorter duration and often have no apparent or logical reason. An anxiety crisis is usually related to a specific fact that acts as a trigger and leads to excessive worry.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>How to discover the factors that increase anxiety?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even people who are not diagnosed with an anxiety disorder can have triggers that make them more anxious. Identification is very private and requires self-knowledge.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cOne way is to try to map the history of the times when you had the most anxiety and what happened before that. For example, a seemingly ordinary event can cause a person to have very negative thoughts. The ideal is to observe this cause and effect relationship\u201d, <\/span><b>explains Bressan.<\/b><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>What are the risks or consequences?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When left untreated, anxiety disorders can harm a patient&#8217;s life by affecting routine activities and personal relationships.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Physical health can also be affected to different degrees; among the possible consequences are: heart disease, high blood pressure, gastrointestinal disorders, chronic headaches and suppression of the immune system.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another mental illness associated with anxiety is depression, which can appear as anxiety develops without the correct treatment. The emotional exhaustion caused by the damage that anxiety disorders bring to a person&#8217;s daily life contributes to the emergence of depressive symptoms. Furthermore, genetic and environmental causes can influence the emergence of more than one mental disorder.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>How to treat different anxiety disorders?<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Early diagnosis is decisive for the patient&#8217;s successful recovery. It helps prevent complications, reduces suffering and improves the quality of life of the person and those who live with him, in addition to favoring a more effective treatment intervention.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anxiety disorders can be approached in different ways to improve symptoms. There are three main types of treatment:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Psychotherapy with regular sessions with a psychologist or psychiatrist;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Medication \u2013 which should always be done by a psychiatrist with medical supervision and prescriptions;<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Combination of two treatments, medication and psychotherapy.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In most cases, people start to feel better day by day. Assessment by a specialist is essential, both to direct treatment in the most appropriate way and to enable an early and accurate diagnosis.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"color: #c26dab;\"><b>It is necessary to talk about anxiety disorders and mental health<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anxiety disorders affect millions of people and impact many Brazilians, with various social and economic consequences in addition to the low quality of life of these individuals. In order for us to see this reality and change it, we need to prevent it and treat it correctly.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">To achieve this, an essential step is to reduce stigma and prejudice through debate in different social groups. Valuing mental health, facing it naturally and taking care of it every day are attitudes that we can and should all cultivate.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At Instituto Ame sua Mente, we have different projects that help promote mental health in the school environment and seek to encourage debate throughout society.
