Depression and Anxiety are two forms of emotional disorders. Depression is a psychological problem which is caused by chemical imbalance in the human brain. Anxiety, on the other hand, is a type of an emotional disturbance caused due to imbalances in the body. In both the conditions, person becomes lethargic and his or her appetite decreases.
Depression and Anxiety disorders have a variety of symptoms. Feelings of hopelessness, negativity, persistent sadness, feeling of guilt, worthlessness, lack of concentration and decreased energy are few symptoms of Depression. The common symptoms of Anxiety are tension about daily problems, emotional tremors, feeling of dying, dizziness, light headedness, nausea, difficulty in breathing and constant fear of loosing control.
Depression and Anxiety disorders affect the life of a person in many ways. The person might get irritated or ill tempered due to Depression and Anxiety. The erratic behavior of the patient can take them away from the social life or friends. This further increases the problem. Many of the adults experience sleep disorders due to Depression and Anxiety. It is because they keep on thinking about the daily happenings or old problems before going to sleep.
Depression and Anxiety disorders can not be fully cured. But, they can be treated with the help of appropriate therapies and medical aid. Anti-Anxiety, Anti-Depressants and many other medications can be prescribed to the patients. The medical practitioners hold consultation sessions to understand the mental condition of the patient.
