Body Talk and Anxiety, Depression and Stress
Anxiety, depression and stress affect billions of people all over the world every day. We all suffer from stress in our lives. Stress can represent a positive influence when it stimulates us to achieve our goals and accomplish our daily tasks. Good stress, or eustress, can help us to escape danger or manage through a trauma.
Stress becomes “bad” when too much of it builds up around us triggering overwhelm in the nervous system and keeping us from functioning effectively in our daily lives. Anxiety, like stress, can be a healthy response to a situation when it is put to work to help us solve problems and come up with new solutions. When anxiety becomes excessive, the scope of what we can handle in our lives becomes smaller and smaller. What may have started with an uncomfortable situation can escalate over time and cause physical symptoms of distress like a pounding heartbeat, muscle tension, headaches, upset stomach, shortness of breath and fatigue. The mind races and becomes restless, irritable, has trouble concentrating, and begins to anticipate the worst in each situation.
Depression and anxiety often come hand in hand. Although we all feel ups and down in our life, depression is categorized as a mood disorder that presents in ongoing and long term feelings of sadness, hopelessness, worthlessness and disassociation. Like stress and anxiety, depression often leads to many physical symptoms including back and join and muscle pain. Chest tightness and pain, headaches, digestive problems, urinary tract infections, exhaustion, weight loss or gain and dizziness.
