In daily life, anxiety and depression are emotions you might have occasionally when you’re worried, scared, or things aren’t going well. However, for some people, these natural feelings don’t go away when the problem passes. Instead, they develop into what can be severe, disabling psychiatric disorders.
Anxiety and depression affect people of all ages and backgrounds. Without expert support and treatment, people with these conditions may become isolated, unable to work, and find daily life immensely challenging.
For some people, severe depression can lead to such despair that the only way out they can see is suicide. But with the proper care, it’s possible to overcome anxiety and depression and regain peace and joy. The Remart Medical team specializes in helping people with all forms of anxiety and depression.
Anxiety symptoms revolve around worry, fear, and stress. If you have generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), everything from work and family life to choosing what to wear or buy is a source of immense anxiety.
Some people have panic attacks when their feelings overwhelm them. You might shake uncontrollably, sweat, be unable to move or speak, and have chest pain and difficulty breathing. Panic attacks are so distressing that people go to great lengths to avoid them and may even refuse to leave home.
Depression causes immense sadness and many other negative feelings, such as guilt, self-loathing, and hopelessness. These emotions are unrelenting and impossible to overcome, persisting for months and sometimes years. Nothing in life brings joy; you lose interest in pleasurable activities and may struggle to sleep or eat properly.
The Remart Medical team’s mental health experts excel at treating depression and anxiety.
Both anxiety and depression often respond to medication — antidepressants for depression and anti-anxiety drugs for anxiety. These medicines work by altering the brain’s chemical makeup to improve function in areas of your brain that control mood.
Talk therapy is also key to recovery from anxiety and depression. Different approaches tackle various aspects of your condition; for instance, some help you discover the underlying causes and address them, while others provide you with coping mechanisms to help you get through your day.
