Anxiety disorders are a broad category of mental health conditions that involve persistent, life-disrupting anxiety. Because there are so many anxiety disorders, the symptoms can vary quite a bit. However, disorders like OCD, social phobia, and emetophobia are all linked by their ability to diminish quality of life and create an overwhelming sense of fear in the affected person.
For people who suffer from occasional or mild anxiety, intensive therapy and drug therapy might be unnecessary or simply not affordable.
Fortunately, mild anxiety symptoms can often be managed without professional help. In fact, there are some treatments for mild anxiety that you can make use of from the comfort of your home and without spending too much money.
Did you know that just by adding things like chamomile and green tea to your diet, you can see a reduction in your anxiety symptoms?
Lifestyle changes like taking a brief, refreshing nap (about fifteen minutes) or going for a walk in a calm, natural environment can also help to lessen feelings of stress and anxiety.
Dietary supplements can also be beneficial to your mental (and physical) health. By adding certain minerals to your diet (you should ALWAYS consult with your doctor before doing so to ensure your safety), you may see an improvement in your anxiety.
