Panic Disorder
Panic disorder is a serious health problem in this country.
At least 1.6 percent of adult Americans, or 3 million people, will have panic disorder at
some time in their lives. The disorder is strikingly different from other types of anxiety
in that panic attacks are so sudden, appear to be unprovoked, and are often disabling. |

 |
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
For many years, mental health professionals thought of OCD
as a very rare disease because only a small minority of their patients had the condition.
But it is believed that many of those afflicted with OCD, in efforts to keep their repetitive
thoughts and behaviors secret, fail to seek treatment. |

Social Anxiety Disorder
Social anxiety, sometimes known as social phobia or social
anxiety disorder (SAD), is a common form of anxiety disorder that causes sufferers to experience
intense anxiety in some or all of the social interactions and public events of everyday
life. For instance, some sufferers have difficulty attending parties or meetings, making
a phone call, walking into a shop to purchase goods, or asking for help from authority figures.

Anxiety
disorders are more prevalent than alcohol and drug abuse, but sadly they are the least treated.
Only 23% of the 13.1 million Americans who suffer from anxiety disorders receive the care
and treatment they need. That's why proper diagnosis, education and awareness is so important.
Anxiety disorders often do not occur separately or simply as discrete diagnostic entities.
Often they are associated with other medical conditions including non-anginal chest pain,
drug and alcohol abuse and depression. The result is that in many cases patients are often
left confused about what is really wrong with them, even after consulting with dozens of
medical specialists. |
