Do You Struggle with Anxiety?
Generalised anxiety disorder is experienced by around 6 in 100 adults in the UK, and is usually categorised as someone experiencing several the following symptoms:
- Feeling like you can’t stop worrying.
- Depersonalisation – a type of dissociation wherein you feel as though you are outside of yourself or watching your life as if it were a movie.
- Derealisation – another type of dissociation. When experiencing derealisation, you may feel disconnected from the world, or that the world isn’t real.
- A churning feeling in your stomach.
- Having panic attacks.
- Headaches, backaches, and other aches and pains.
