Classification of anxiety disorders
Anxiety disorders mostly occur in young and middle-aged people, and tend to be younger, and the factors that induce them are mainly related to people's personality and environment.
In the youth group, those who are introverted, shy, and overly neurotic are prone to anxiety disorders; while the anxiety disorder patients in the middle-aged group are often closely related to fierce competition, overload work, long-term mental work, interpersonal tension, etc., and some patients have atypical triggers.
Clinically, anxiety disorders are often divided into two categories: acute anxiety and chronic anxiety.
(1) Chronic anxiety: Acute anxiety often arises in the background of chronic anxiety, but more patients mainly manifest as symptoms of chronic anxiety.
It is difficult to distinguish from neurasthenia or other specialized diseases, so it is necessary for the doctor to have a comprehensive and meticulous understanding of the condition to avoid misdiagnosis. Sometimes some necessary auxiliary tests can help rule out organic diseases, such as electrocardiogram, chest x-ray, gastrointestinal angiography, gastroscopy, etc. can help doctors detect diseases.
However, although the subjective symptoms of anxiety disorders are severe, the objective signs are mild or negative.
