Severe Anxiety Symptoms in Women and How To Treat Them
from:While anxiety and even severe anxiety symptoms may affect both genders, some studies show that women are more prone to suffering from severe anxiety symptoms as compared to men. This may be attributed to the side-effects that some birth control methods women use, the hormonal changes that women undergo through the years and even the treatments they use when they undergo such hormonal changes.
Severe anxiety symptoms are sometimes manifested when women use certain birth control medication because these birth control items often contain substances that alter a woman's hormonal cycles. Hormonal changes are also known to occur when women are either pregnant or are going through menopause. These changes in the woman's body often have their systems going haywire, which is why they are prone to the emergence of severe anxiety symptoms.
To try and determine whether or not a woman is indeed suffering from severe anxiety, you will need to know what the signs are. Severe anxiety symptoms are divided into the physical and the mental symptoms. Figuring out if a woman has any of these severe anxiety symptoms at an early stage can help you find a viable solution to the problem. Since severe anxiety often comes hand in hand with depression, it is important that the person find help or a solution as soon as diagnosis is complete.
Physical severe anxiety symptoms often include chills or hot flashes, chest pains, palpitations, headaches, dizziness, jitters or twitches, diarrhea or frequent urination and shortness of breath, among a list of many others. These physical severe anxiety symptoms can also be accompanied by some mental symptoms. The list of mental severe anxiety symptoms may include uneasiness, restlessness, insecurity or self consciousness, avoidance and confusion, to name but a few. These physical and mental symptoms may be aggravated by the use of certain substances, the presence of a certain illness or disease or events that may give a person undue stress.
When these severe anxiety symptoms show up, immediate treatment should be exacted. The possibility of a person doing something extreme, like harming oneself due to the overwhelming feeling that severe anxiety often brings, is very real. Treatments may involve a combination of anti-depression medications, therapy and lifestyle changes that include a change in diet and sleeping habits. Exercise is also known to be a good way to battle these severe anxiety symptoms. There are also alternative means to get relief from these symptoms like acupuncture, hypnotherapy, meditation and herbal remedies that may offer the victims the kind of help they need.
