Everyone feels stressed and anxious on occasion. But if you’re feeling these emotions most of the time, you may benefit from counseling. At the office of North Shore, we can help!
Stress and anxiety can be useful and normal in certain high-stress situations like before giving a big speech, or taking a big trip. However, if you are feeling restless irritable or lethargic, having trouble sleeping or focusing on what you’re doing, you could have an anxiety disorder or suffer from chronic stress. While the symptoms of these conditions are very similar, chronic stress and anxiety are not the same.
What is chronic stress?
It’s important to know that a certain amount if stress is very normal and most people get stressed out from time to time. Typically stress is related to an event or situation. You may be stressed when planning a family gathering, for example. Once the stressful situation has passed, your stress should subside as well. However, with chronic stress, these feelings may not pass as quickly. If you’re in a very high-pressured job, you may be stressed around the clock. This type of constant stress can have an impact on your mind and body. There are a number of exercises and tools we have to help reduce your stress. If you think you may fit this description, set up a session to help ease your mind.
About Anxiety
Stress and anxiety often go hand in hand. But what are the differences? While stress is linked to an event or situation, anxiety is usually an internal reaction that’s not related to a particular event. Anxiety can linger and seem like a constant feeling of dread, even in non-stressful situations. If fear or anxiety is interfering with your daily routines or preventing you from doing the things you want to do, you may have an anxiety disorder. There’s no reason to continue to feel this way! There are steps you can take, and tools you can learn to ease your anxious thoughts. The first step is to ask for help.
At the office of North Shore, we’re dedicated to providing the highest quality of skilled and compassionate care. For more information on our office and the many services that we provide, give us a call today.
