Physical Causes of Anxiety
Loading...
By Joanne King
If you experience Anxiety & Panic Attacks it may very well be a “secondary” condition to another physical illness.
Of course, the only way to know for sure is to be as open and honest with your doctor about your symptoms and your lifestyle as possible (even if it is embarrassing).
There are so many things that can contribute or have caused your anxiety disorder and panic attacks that the list is just incredibly long.
Here are just a few possible physical causes of anxiety disorder and panic attacks:
* Low potassium levels
* High potassium levels
* Diabetes
* Depression
* Cigarette smoking
* Alcohol consumption
* Recreational Drugs
* Medications (including the one’s that are prescribed for anxiety & panic)
* Cancer
* Aids
* Malnutrition
* Kidney Disease
* Work place stress
* Marriage breakdown
* Witnessing or being a part of a traumatic event
* Dehydration
* Asthma
* Heart conditions
If your anxiety & panic attacks have become a disorder then you’re not only going to have to treat the primary cause (which could be anything from the list above and more), but also treat the anxiety & panic disorder as you have developed a new response to fear and stress.

Many well-known therapists believe that ;biological and psychological
factors both play a large and affective Role .
Here – In this comment – I will try to Deal with the biological one ..
Feelings of depression are caused by a chemical change that affects
how the brain functions.
A normally functioning brain is a giant messaging system that controls
everything from your heartbeat, to walking, to your emotions. The
brain is made up of billions of components with called “nerve cells”
or “neurons” . These nerve cells send and receive messages from the
rest of all your body, using brain chemicals “neurotransmitters” .
These chemicals in the human brain are responsible for our emotional
state. Depression happens when these chemical messages are not
correctly send or received between brain cells, which affect the
communication.
(i. e., A telephone): If your telephone has a weak signal, you can’t
hear the person on the other end. so it is disabled or unclear
It has been proposed that even the people who already suffering
depression, have a way to treat it passed on the biological side, This
way is the “Medications” .
The main role of the “Medications” Is to fortify weak signals by
raising the levels of certain neurotransmitters . which guarantee that
the brain’s messages are submitted loud and clear.
