Is Panic Disorder the Same as Anxiety Disorder?

Panic disorder and anxiety disorder are related but distinct conditions. While both involve heightened anxiety, panic disorder is marked by sudden, intense episodes of fear—commonly referred to as panic attacks—often without an obvious trigger.

Symptoms of Panic Disorder
  • Sudden, intense fear or panic attacks without warning
  • Rapid heartbeat, chest pain, and shortness of breath
  • Excessive sweating, trembling, or shaking during an episode
  • Dizziness, lightheadedness, or a feeling faintness
  • Nausea, abdominal distress, chills, or hot flashes
  • Feelings of detachment from reality or fear of losing control

Why You Should Seek Counseling for Anxiety

Anxiety can disrupt daily life, relationships, and overall well-being. For many men, societal expectations and limited male-focused therapy options can make seeking help daunting. At Denver Men’s Therapy, we understand these challenges and are here to support you.

Consider counseling for anxiety for these reasons:

  1. Learn Effective Coping Strategies: Our therapists offer practical techniques, including relaxation exercises, mindfulness, and cognitive-behavioral strategies.

     

  2. Gain Insight into Your Anxiety: Counseling helps identify root causes, such as past experiences or unhelpful thought patterns, for greater self-awareness.

     

  3. Reduce and Resolve Anxiety Symptoms: The goal of anxiety therapy is to treat the anxiety symptoms so that they no longer have a negative impact on daily life. 

     

  4. Build a Support System: A therapist provides a safe, non-judgmental space to express your feelings and gain valuable support.

     

  5. Address Co-occurring Disorders: If dealing with other mental health issues, our therapists can help navigate and develop a comprehensive treatment plan.

Taking the first step towards counseling shows strength and self-awareness. Reach out to Denver Men’s Therapy today. Our compassionate therapists are here to support you.
