how is general anxiety disorder start or how is it caused??

Answer 1

mine was discovered to be caused by my sociopath Mom during my childhood

Answer 2

That is the six million dollar question. Why do normally functioning people all of a sudden get struck down with such a disorder. The best thing anyone can do is recognize the symptoms and start to treat them in a variety of ways. My profile under anxiety has a site dedicated just to this. It just information thats all. Anyone who suffers such a disorder deserves all the sympathy they can get and of course the support.

Answer 3

Sometimes the stress of daily living can become to great for people to bear. They can no longer solve their internal or external conflicts, and their anxieties will adversely affect their overt behavior. Such people are said to be suffering form anxiety neurosis.. Their behavior is technically defined as an (anxiety reaction). Being overwhelmed by fears and anxieties causes the anxiety neurotic to develop a pattern of maladaptive responses . The most frequent of these responses is overall tension.

anxiety well its hard to understand if you have never had it..i have it and i deal with it everyday...i went through calling 911 and going to emergency room alot
well,mine is caused from real pain that i do have on my left side in my chest and arm...which i went through th 911 stuff also e.r stuff becuz it was real pain and all docs would say is pulled muscle everytime..and i knew there was something wrong besides a pulled muscle as i always said its my body and i know ...then after over a year of all this i got sent to community mental health ..and getting xanax for anxiety..buty yet i knew something was wrong with my body..SO THATS WHY I HAD PAINC ATTACKS!!!!!!!!! because knowone gave me the answers...and i was scared!!!! then finally about 3 months ago i took myself to a neurologist after doing research for over a year of all my symtoms(pain in left chest) well i had m.r.i"s done by the neurologist and well it so happens where that pain is i have degenerative arthritis and on top i have 6 bulging disk..and since then my anxiety has lessoned but since it took me so long to find answers i still have a small fear that theres more wrong
so my anxiety came from fear of the pain and where it was so then it hurt alot and id pay alotta attention to the pain it would make my chest hurt and heart pound then it felt like i was in serious danger
anxiety can come from what i went through or people can get it when they feel closed in or too much is going on ...raceing thoughts can do it to!!also bad child hood ..seeing dealth..its basically fears along with your mind playing tricks on you!!!! srry so long hope this helps you understand anxiety!!!

Answer 7

I think in this day and age anxiety is very common. Alot of people suffer ,I think ,because of financial problems, or family issues. Mine started just after my husband of 29 years died suddenly at the age of 48 of a sudden heart attack. We had 2 children still at home. My husband was home on disability for a few years before he passed and I always worked outside the home. He made all the decisisions concerning our family and what we did and where we went. So I wasn't used to having to make any of my own. I had to get used to it real fast, unfortunatly I made some bad ones. I had some problems with my son after my husbands death, and had to put him in a rehabilitation program. It broke my heart to do it but I had no choice, he was having alot of difficulty at the age of 17 and loosing his dad so quickly, not getting a chance to say good bye.My daughter was 13 at the time of his death but she kept most of her grief inside or confided in her friends. The loss of him and realizing that I had to be the decisision maker suddenly made me see how important he was to us. We had taken him for granted without realizing it until he was gone. It was all so overwhelming for me that I started having panick attacks, and finally started seing a shrink. This was over 9 years ago and I still have to take Xanex every day. I met and married another man who insted of helping me made things wores. He was one who could talke me into buying anything he wanted, he knew I had some money from insurance and my kids got social security death benefits from thier dad.I let him talk me into some bad decisions and after I saw he was more of a hinderance than a help to us I finally made him leave. But this was after I had lost our home and had to file bankruptsy, what a bad deal for me. We have been seperated now for almost 4 years I don't know where he is and don't care all I do know is that he put me in such a financial bind that I can't see the light of day. I work all that time and when I can work 2 jobs. Still I can't get out of this debt that just keeps seem to be piling up on me no matter how hard I try. So this adds to the anxiety. There is not a day that goes by that I don't think of my late husband and all I lost that we built together that is all gone. it makes me feel like such a failure. I am always beating myself up over it and the more I do this the more anxious I feel . I have been to the emergency room thinking that I was having a hert attatck, it was a panick attack. It was not long after that , that I left my current husband. It was then that I saw that he was just bringing me down more than I already was. Now he is out of the picture and I am still having problems. I blamed all that I lost and my situation on him for along time, but in reality it was my own ignorance that let me get into this stuation. I just wish I knew what to do to get out of it.I have nothing left as I said before. I have to live with my mother and sister, my son is now married < happily I might add, with 2 little boys and my daughter is living with me and my mom and sister and she has a 5 year old. I'm afraid I haven't been a very good influence for her since her dad passed away. and that makes me feel like a failure too.I guess I have more than answered your question, I have went on and on here. But anxiety has different reasons for appering I just had to give the reason for mine in here.I guess hoping it would help me to vent the reason I have it. I could go on and on about issues with my curent husband and how I got into this place in my life and his part in it but I won't. I want to thank you for reading wish you well.

Answer 8

Well, Jesus can fix anything, if you want it fixed. Even mental issues. Yeah it may be passed from your parents, but God is the healer of all. Read the Bible and your issues can be solved. There is something supernatural about reading the Bible and IT fixing the issues of your life.

Just read it. Even if you dont understand it. God's Word will do a work IN YOU (work that we don't have to do) that can not be explained.....mmmmmm.
