Inability to relax

Excessive worry can have a significant impact on one’s ability to relax, and for some individuals, it can be a severe condition.

If your worries are consistently present and hinder your ability to relax, you may be experiencing generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). GAD is characterized by persistent and excessive worrying that can be physically and mentally exhausting, interfering with sleep, work, and overall energy levels.

Unlike a panic attack, GAD is less intense but more long-lasting, leading to a constant sense of unease or dread that affects various aspects of life. The heightened state of anxiety may cause increased worry even in response to seemingly harmless comments or behavioral changes, even when there is little to be concerned about.

Whether you recognize that your anxiety is disproportionate to the situation, notice that others around you do not share the same level of worry, or find that your worry is becoming disruptive, professional help is available.

Treatment options for anxiety vary depending on its severity. Practices such as mindfulness and yoga can aid in managing anxiety levels and promoting relaxation. Additionally, our counselors are available to discuss your concerns, provide support, and help you develop coping strategies to minimize unproductive and irrational thoughts associated with anxiety.

It is important to seek guidance from healthcare professionals to receive an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment for your anxiety symptoms.
