Night Anxiety - Signs, Symptoms And Top Methods To Prevent Anxiety At Night

By Antonio G. Clerk


Panic disorders in men are really emotional conditions which often can take control of your daily life. They are able to render you helpless leading you to always ask yourself whether or not the next panic or anxiety attack is on its way. This anxiousness can make the sufferer become worried to even leave his house believing he may have a panic or anxiety attack where people might see.

Physical symptoms are sometimes present in sufferers of anxiety. These can take two extremes depending on the person. For example, they may find that they are constipated or that they have diarrhea, either could be caused by anxiety. They may have various aches and pains all over their bodies. This may be from frequent tensing of the muscles across their body. Problems with digestion may also indicate anxiety. Changes in appetite or frequent nausea for example might be signs of anxiety. Headaches may become more frequent or longer-lasting.

Over the years I found just a few methods that gave me some relief from night anxiety, I wanted to share them with you:The Best Methods to Fight Night Anxiety:Avoiding prescription drugs - I have tried that out - and it gave me a little relief - but the goal is to get through night anxiety without creating another problem - chemical dependency. Besides, these drugs will never cure the condition, only temporarily relieve symptoms.Avoiding Caffeine, nicotine or wine in the evening- these only made the problem worse. I actually tried living with or without them and witnessed the difference. These can actually make your attacks worse and caffeine can actually give you insomnia, thus you can't sleep at all.

Drinking valerian or St.John's wart tea - actually helped me (sometimes) prevent night anxiety.Avoiding bad night habits - Don't look at the clock! Ever!Turn the clock around to face the wall, or hide it in a drawer or under the bed. I was constantly checking the time and that reinforced my thought that I'll never get back to sleep.Don't stay in bed more than 15 minutes. I used to do this to remind my brain that the bed is the place to sleep - not the place for stressing, worrying and obsessing. Night anxiety should not happen in bed.

There are many symptoms to anxiety and panic. Having a handful of these symptoms does not mean you are suffering from one of these conditions, and if you are genuinely concerned you should visit your doctor and explain your worries. Panic has far more pronounced symptoms than anxiety, but they are also very short-lived, so they should not last for more than around ten minutes. Anxiety can be a problem that lasts for many years, so if you believe you may have a serious anxiety problem, it is important to decide how you will treat it.

Antidepressant could also help people in getting rid of these anxiety attacks. However, you have to first talk to your health care provider before you take antidepressants. If you are having heavy anxiety and panic attacks, a quick treatment of this type will help you limit the impact from the symptoms.

There are ways in which anxiety disorder in children can be treated. This treatment starts with identification of the signs anxiety disorder in children will exhibit. The signs will usually be physical manifestation of mental processes. The signs that can help you identify anxiety disorder in children include the following.Shyness is one sign exhibited by anxiety disorder in children. In this case it is an excessive form of shyness that never seems to let go of the child. Such children often have to be forced to express themselves often worsening the situation. One way of treating this condition is finding out the situations that a child is more likely to feel comfortable enough to express themselves. From this point, help the child develop their confidence such that the shyness gradually dissipates.

Behavior therapies is a process which has taken center stage fairly recently in dealing with panic disorders that face men. This therapy primarily specializes in changing those specific behaviors and tendencies in a person's life that could possibly trigger an anxiety attack. It involves many steps that minimizes or can stop the habits. Behavior therapies has proven invaluable with many panic and anxiety attacks.

Lack of Concentration-you are so focused on the worry that you cannot concentrate. For example, you maybe in school in a lecture and you cannot focus on the lecture because you are worried that your worry may become true.Panic Attacks-you may or may not have panic attacks, but for anyone who has had one, you never forget the feeling. Your heart beats like it is coming out of your chest, you may sweat, and you get to the point where it takes your breath away. It is so bad that you may feel like you are dying. It may last 5-15 minutes until your body regulates itself and brings you back to your normal state of rest.Some of these symptoms mirror other disorders so it is important that if you have any of these symptoms, you get evaluated by a professional to rule out anxiety. Psychiatrists and psychologists can evaluate for anxiety as well as licensed clinical social workers and licensed professional counselors. It is important that you do not self-diagnose. Above are only some of the symptoms of anxiety. There are many more. They are the top things we look for in diagnosing anxiety in a client.

In some anxiety disorder in children perfectionism is the case. These children focus on one thing for hours. They have set standards in their minds that an activity must achieve to qualify as complete. This condition can be treated by showing interest in what they do. For example, if a child takes too long in washing their hands, once they are doing it, jump in and suggest showing them a trick on how to wash their hands faster making them cleaner. Do it fast and ensure the child tries it out. This will form a change in habits for the child, although the concentration is there, they will work on activities faster.
