What is Anxiety?

Anxiety is your body’s natural response to stress. It’s a feeling of fear or apprehension about what’s to come. 

Anxiety feels different depending on the person experiencing it. Feelings can range from butterflies in your stomach to a racing heart. You might feel out of control, like there’s a disconnect between your mind and body.

Other ways people experience anxiety include nightmares, panic attacks, and painful thoughts or memories that you can’t control. You may have a general feeling of fear and worry, or you may fear a specific place or event.

Symptoms of general anxiety include:

  • increased heart rate
  • rapid breathing
  • restlessness
  • trouble concentrating
  • difficulty falling asleep

These symptoms aren’t pleasant and can cause big disruptions to your daily life.

WHAT DOES TREATMENT FOR ANXIETY LOOK LIKE?

Psychological treatments for anxiety across the Geelong region can be one-on-one, group-based or online via telehealth. 

Talking therapies can help us change habits in the way we think, and cope better with life’s challenges. They can help us address the reasons behind our anxiety, and also prevent anxiety from returning. 

At Happy Minds Psychology, we work with our clients across Geelong to develop resiliency to anxiety, so that anxiety isn’t something that keeps on getting in your way.
