[quote=Anonymous]Media saturation which makes the prevalence of bad things seem out of proportion to what is. 24 hours news cycle which fills blank spots with supposition and innuendo. Loosening of family connections. Loosening of societal connections. Moving around alot. All this causes anxiety. Now whether it rises to the level of needing medication - that's for you and your doctor to decide. Not all people process information the same way and what one person characterizes as "normal worries" becomes all outsized to another person. I am one of those people who don't worry about things generally, but my best friend and my mother are consummate worriers - and my best friend is on medication for an anxiety disorder and my mother goes off and on medication for the same. She's much better when she's on medication. It's the perseverating that makes it so bad... [/quote]
