Coping Skills for Adults with Anxiety

Overcoming Anxiousness

Dr. Arvinder Walia and Psychiatric Nurse Practitioners Wendy Lowry and Mallori Hernandez at Northwest Psychiatry in Austin, TX, help adults conquer anxiety.

Some form of anxiousness during life is standard. However, when apprehension affects your life every day to the point that you always feel worried or fearful, it places you in constant turmoil, affecting your private and professional life and becoming counterproductive.

Our doctor teaches coping skills so you can conquer three kinds of anxiousness: generalized fear, panic disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.

Some Successful Coping Skills

We will assess your mental and emotional health to help you increase your quality of life.

This consultation includes an in-depth psychiatric evaluation of what you are experiencing and the associated symptoms. In addition, our doctor may teach you one or several common ways to cope with constant anxiousness.

The following are a few standard coping methods used in psychiatric counseling. However, one method that works for someone may not work for you.

Medication Intervention

Medications such as anti-anxiety drugs help you reduce anxiety, worry, and signs of panic attacks. The type and dose of drugs depend on the symptoms' severity.

Prep Yourself

Being nervous about a situation is normal. However, being anxious all the time over multiple daily concerns can rule your life. You learn how to meet problems head-on, increasing your strength to meet each new uneasy situation that may arise.

Control Your Breathing

Never allow your breathing to become rapid and shallow, as this can lead to a panic attack. Instead, you can learn how and when to control your breathing. For example, be mindful of taking slow deep breaths and releasing your breath slowly. This helps to calm your nerves.

Understanding Your Mind and Body

Our provider can help you understand how your mind works and how to focus on the present. Never fret about the future, things in the past, or things that may never happen. Learn to focus on your breathing and present time. Take care of yourself, ie, good nutrition, enough sleep, rest, and relaxation.
