Anxiety, Stress & Depression

What is Anxiety, Stress & Depression?

Anxiety is a general term for several disorders that cause nervousness, fear, apprehension, and worry that doesn’t subside and is ongoing without a particular reason. These disorders affect how we feel and behave and can cause physical symptoms too.

Stress is also a form of anxiety, the way the body responds to pressure at work or any kind of perceived threat, It can also be emotional.

Both are a natural protective mechanism which should automatically go away but in some cases, it doesn’t, which consequently causes problems for certain individuals.

Depression, similar to stress, is a psychological term which has now become ‘mainstream’ and therefore, a bit distorted. Clients look at me with a puzzled expression when they tell me that they are ‘depressed’ and I ask them what they mean by that. It is not that I don’t know what depression is but I want to know what they are calling depression. Is it just a feeling of being extremely sad and unmotivated? 

No, depression is much more than that. When a person is depressed there is an extreme loss of interest and pleasure in activities and life in general. This is usually followed by a change in a person’s sleep pattern and/or appetite, lack of concentration and an extreme feeling of worthlessness or guilt that can persist and really disrupt an individual’s life.
