A reflection on why it is necessary to take anxiety problems seriously.
You think too much about your future or what you will do tomorrow, you want things to happen instantaneously, you no longer enjoy your life as you used to, you have excessive worries?
In short, you feel anxiousIn short, you feel anxious, with increased heart rate, you feel short of breath, you have involuntary tremors, sweating, rapid breathing, feeling weak or tired, you have trouble falling asleep, and other symptoms associated with anxiety problems.
If this problem is not treated in time it can worsen to the point of somatization and wear down your physical and mental health. Anxiety disorders make us more vulnerable to pathologies such as cancer, diabetes, premature ejaculation problems, menstrual problems, Gastrointestinal complications, heart problems, or acne, among others.
What does anxiety-related somatization consist of?
As your thoughts generating anguish or anxiety make you feel negative emotions again and again, in that cycle of discomfort the brain produces certain molecules with harmful effects if they accumulate too much in the body.
Part of them are hormones that circulate through the bloodstream and travel throughout your body giving rise to chain reactions that increase the likelihood of suffering from certain diseases. chain reactions that increase the likelihood of certain diseases.
It is for this reason that many people go for medical check-ups all the time, but no doctor or laboratory can find any health problems. The tests always come out normal, but in spite of that people still feel bad, because they have not treated the emotional problem. they have not treated the emotional problem.
How to cope with anxiety?
Emotions are the main factor in whether a person is healthy or unhealthy, although in many ways, we have not been taught to pay them the attention they deserve..
Many times, the doctor is a professional who knows perfectly well that the root of the patient's illness is the psychological factor, but still decides to do the check-up and gives the order to do the laboratory tests because that means an instant improvement for the person suffering from the symptoms.
The patient expects some disease to be foundThe patient's condition is better than expected, but contrary to expectations, according to the analysis, he is better than ever. This is when the treating physician sends the patient to the psychologist, a context in which emotion management strategies are put in place.
Emotions are largely produced by our thoughts, and to a large extent anxiety is directly related to our thoughts. to a large extent anxiety is directly related to overthinking about our problems, about the future: what will I do tomorrow, where will I live, what will I do in the future?What will I do tomorrow, where will I live, what will I eat, who will I marry?
