What Is Anxiety?
Anxiety is an emotion that normally occurs in response to stressful situations. It is characterized by fear, worries, restlessness, and physical body reactions like headaches, nausea, shortness of breath, or hypertension.
Anxiety disorders often differ in the severity and frequency of symptoms. These are mental illnesses that affect your day-to-day life and often require professional assistance: therapy sessions or medications.
Common Anxiety Symptoms
- Excessive worry
- Fatigue and low energy
- Irritability
- Restlessness and edginess
- Sleep disturbances
- Difficulty concentrating
- Physical symptoms (muscle tension or aches, stomachaches, frequent headaches, and unexplained pains throughout the body)

Major Types of Anxiety Include:
Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Social Anxiety Disorder
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
Panic Disorder
Postpartum Anxiety
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
The best treatment for anxiety disorder is a comprehensive plan developed by a licensed doctor. It can include prescription management, therapy sessions, and learning self-help techniques.
This condition comes in many forms and may be caused by both physical and mental issues. If you constantly feel anxious, consider visiting a professional to go through an assessment and get first-line treatment for anxiety. While self-help stress-management techniques may reduce symptoms, only a healthcare provider can recommend the most effective treatment. It can include medications, psychotherapy, changes in daily routines, or other approaches.
Severe symptoms may require taking medications. Also, cognitive-behavioral therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and exposure therapy proved to be beneficial. Before visiting a mental health expert for anxiety disorder treatment and a prescription for anxiety medicine online, it’s beneficial to practice relaxation techniques, be physically active, and avoid alcohol and caffeine.
Anxiety Assessment
Answering online anxiety screening tests cannot replace medical assessments conducted by a licensed healthcare professional. At MEDvidi, you can get diagnosed with anxiety online after a consultation with a mental health expert.
1. A healthcare professional examines your symptoms and how they influence your work, education, relationships, and other areas of life.
2. The signs of anxiety can also indicate the presence of other conditions like depression, so it is important to rule them out. A provider will use the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-5) and other resources to confirm the diagnosis.
Connect with a licensed mental health professional via telemedicine who will provide you with a diagnosis and a personalized treatment plan.
How Anxiety Affects Your Life If Left Untreated
The earlier you obtain an assessment and start treatment, the better results you can achieve and the fewer consequences you may face.
Without professional help, untreated anxiety disorders might lead to:
- Avoiding events, work, and struggling with daily routines.
- Struggling with day-to-day social interactions.
- Having a constant fear of embarrassment or being judged.
- Unpleasant symptoms like panic attacks that may occur unexpectedly.

They really do go above and beyond to help clients. You can do a telehealth visit right over the phone or video call for anxiety meds the very same day. In this day in age, that is major. I was skeptical at first so i called the customer service department to see if it was a legit company and it is.
I paid, set up my appointment, spoke to a doctor and received my medication within a couple of hours.

Treatment plans for anxiety disorders should meet the needs of every particular patient. They include medications, therapy sessions, or a combination of both. The plan is adjusted according to an individual’s response to treatment.
Medication management is one of the most common treatment strategies for anxiety. Still, it is not an imperative step, and in some cases, psychotherapy has similar effectiveness. Also, there is short-term and long-term treatment, and the duration is defined by the doctor based on the patient’s symptoms and other factors.
At MEDvidi, we develop personalized plans based on the information gathered during an assessment. It includes present symptoms, diagnosis, health history, and associated factors. Every plan can be tailored to a specific goal and adjusted based on an individual’s progress.

Types of Therapy for Anxiety Treatment
Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy
CBT is the first-line therapy for anxiety and panic attacks. It is effective in defining triggers, finding healthier ways to react in different situations, and eliminating stress.
Interpersonal Therapy
Initially developed to treat depression, interpersonal therapy has proven to be beneficial for anxiety treatment. It focuses on improving your relationships through a thorough review of major connections and issues associated with them, role-playing, and other techniques.
Psychodynamic Therapy
Psychodynamic therapy is commonly used in social anxiety treatment. It emphasizes the need to identify the roots of certain symptoms: situations, experiences, and triggers. It can help you to modify your coping mechanisms into those that are more healthy.
Exposure Therapy
Exposure therapy involves diverse exercises, activities, and deep analytical processes. It can help you reduce the influence of triggers on your physical and emotional states.
