Panic Attacks & Phobic Reactions
Many people with panic disorder worry about and dread the possibility of having another attack, and may fear or avoid places where panic attacks have occurred in the past.
Social Anxiety
Social anxiety (also called social phobia) is a common anxiety disorder. A person with social anxiety feels symptoms of anxiety or fear in certain or all social situations, such as meeting new people, dating, being on a job interview, answering a question in class, or having to talk to a store clerk.
Generalized Anxiety
Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. You might worry about things like health, money, or family problems. But people with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) feel extremely worried or nervous about these and other things—even when there is little or no reason to worry.
Pain
Pain is a common health problem and the reason for most doctor visits. For treatment purposes it is helpful to distinguish between acute pain, procedural pain, and chronic pain.
