Anxiety Treatments

On By Yvonne

While less serious anxiety can sometimes be countered with simple relaxation techniques, any significant degree of anxiety requires more intensive measures. Anxiety is usually treated with a combination of therapy and medication. These medications can include antidepressants, as well as herbal, vitamin, and holistic remedies. Therapy is employed in conjunction with the medication in order to help the patient gain control over the thought processes that instigate the anxiety.

One popular method or treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy. This approach assists individuals to develop the mental skills necessary to recognize and gain a degree of control over the symptoms of anxiety. These skills help in restoring the cognitive balance that can get disrupted by anxiety and depression. When this balance is restored, an individual is better equipped to deal with anxiety symptoms on his or her own, even after completing therapy.
