Brain activity reflects differences in types of anxiety

by admin in

According to a recent national survey on 42 subjects from a pool of 1,099 undergraduate college students using Magnetic Resonance Imaging (fMRI), brain activity reflects differences in types of anxiety. 

By using psychological tests to categorize them as “high anxious apprehension,” “high anxious arousal,” or neither, the anxious apprehension (verbal rumination, worry)  group exhibited enhanced left-brain activity and the anxious arousal (intense fear, panic, or both) group had heightened activity in the right brain.

What this signifies is that

“This is biological validation of the proposal of the psychological differentiation of types of anxiety,” Miller said. “Whether you want to treat anxiety psychologically or biologically – and we know that either type of intervention affects both the psychology and the biology of the person – these findings are a reminder that you might want to assess people carefully before you embark on a particular type of treatment.”

Their work appears this month online in Psychophysiology.

Yoga may help those that suffer from depression and anxiety. Boston researchers suggested that this is possible by elevating brain gamma-aminobutyric, or GABA, levels.
Low GABA levels are some indications of depression and anxiety disorders. Thus, pharmaceutical agents are designed to increase GABA levels. By using magnetic resonance spectroscopic imaging,  to compare the GABA levels of eight subjects  have found to increase 27 percent GABA levels after one hour of yoga.

Generalized anxiety disorder symptoms

by admin in

A lot of us have some kind of  worries in our lives at some of time which we do not spent a large amount of wasted time in pondering over them. However, there are others who constantly worry over anything and everything may be suffering from GAD otherwise known as Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Along with other types of anxiety disorders, people should consult with qualified medical practitioner and identify it correctly prior to receiving proper treatment for Generalized Anxiety Disorder.

The sufferer of Generalized Anxiety Disorder will live in a chronic and exaggerated state of worry and tension most of the time. In some extreme situation, the emotions of GAD can arise without any provocative circumstances. Generalized Anxiety Disorder symptoms can also induce the sufferer to be always anticipating disaster. In this type of situation the source of the danger is somewhat difficult and hard to pinpoint.

These are perhaps the early warning symptoms of GAD which includes others like excessive amounts of anxiety and worry. These feelings can persist for many days up to a few months. The chronic anxiety and worry can occur due to any event or activity that you will be participating in. These feelings of worry are difficult to control for the GAD sufferer.
