Behavioural Disorders: Anxiety Disorders

Author: Sarah Jo Lorenz

Everyone feels a little anxious or on edge now and then, and most of us have had that brief moment when the "fight or flight" instinct kicks in. For the most part, those times are few and far between, but what happens when anxiety is not fleeting and seems like the norm? Anxiety disorders can be extremely stressful, embarrassing, and troublesome for those who suffer from them, but you are definitely not alone. Millions of people suffer from anxiety disorders. In fact, anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in the United States today, affecting 40 million adults. Genetics, brain chemistry, life events and personality all factor in regarding whether a person will develop an anxiety disorder. Anxiety disorders are highly treatable, but fewer than half of people affected receive treatment. Every book in this series is packed with valuable information regarding anxiety disorders and other behavioral disorders. This comprehensive series offers insight into the causes, treatments and outlook for each of these disorders.
