Mental Health Professionals
Anxiety can feel different for everyone, but did you know there are clinical guidelines that help mental health professionals recognize when it’s more than everyday stress?
According to the DSM-5, anxiety is marked by excessive worry that lasts most days for at least 6 months, is difficult to control, and shows up with symptoms like:
🌼 Restlessness or feeling on edge
🌼 Fatigue
🌼 Difficulty concentrating or a blank mind
🌼 Irritability
🌼 Muscle tension
🌼 Sleep disturbances
Reading through these signs can be eye-opening, but it’s important to remember: this isn’t meant for self-diagnosis. Instead, it’s a way to notice patterns and give yourself permission to seek support if anxiety is taking up too much space in your life.
At Life By Design Therapy™, we specialize in somatic and holistic approaches to anxiety, helping you not only manage symptoms, but also understand and heal the root of what your body and nervous system are carrying.
✨ Do you recognize yourself in any of these signs? You don’t have to navigate it alone; therapy can be a powerful next step.
