Hello, everyone and [welcome] back to A [mah] in today's video
We're going to be doing an anxiety test now before we get into the actual anxiety test itself
[I] want to tell you a bit [more] about [anxiety] and tell you a few facts about the condition
one in 13 people
worldwide
Suffer from an anxiety disorder [that] means every 13 people that watch this video at least
At least one of them will be suffering from anxiety
Women have doubled the risk of developing an anxiety disorder
Than men people who suffer from an anxiety disorder
Often suffer from other mental health conditions along with their [anxiety] disorder the most common mental
health illness that goes alongside
Anxiety is actually depression. So people who suffer from Depression
Often have anxiety and people that suffer from anxiety
often have depression
So they pretty much go hand in hand with [each] other [now] of course that's not every single case, but [the] majority of people
Do suffer both of them there are many different anxiety disorders out there?
and I want to tell you the main ones that people suffer from the first one is gad and that stands for
general anxiety
Disorder and that [is] the main
Anxiety disorder that people suffer from you have a panic disorder
So panic attacks you have social anxiety disorder and that is when people become anxious in
social situations you have
post-traumatic
stress disorder you also have
Obsessive-compulsive disorder now let's get on to the actual anxiety test
this test is designed to see if you
Have Gad so once again gad stands for general anxiety disorder
So this test is designed to see if you have general anxiety
not just one specific part of anxiety like social anxiety
But to see if you as a whole have anxiety if you've seen my depression test video you will
Understand how I do a scoring system
[and] how the questions actually work for those of you that don't know?
How I do my mental health tests, I will explain to you [now]
How they work I'm going to ask you a questions, and you are going to answer yes, or no
You can either keep them in your head and remember your answers for each of the eight questions
Or you can write them down on a piece of paper
I will also leave that eight questions in the description Box down below
So while I'm talking you can scroll down and read them for yourself [at] the end of the eight questions
[I] will give you your results without further ado let's get into the questions
The first question is do you worry?
Every day and feel as if you can't control your worry the second question is do you worry about?
Different activities [and] events that are happening in your life
Question three are you constantly on Edge?
Question 4 do you become tired easily?
Question 5 does your worry?
ControL what you do, or what you don't do in your life
question 6 do you get muscle tension or
Heart palpitations question 7 do you have trouble concentrating?
Question 8 do you avoid certain situations in your life?
Now you've answered all the questions
Let's see if you are in fact suffering from anxiety
If you answered three or less
Yeses to the questions is highly unlikely that you are suffering from general anxiety disorder
[you] probably just worry too much in your life, and
Worrying is [normal] and when you worry or if you worry too much
It doesn't necessarily mean you're suffering [from] an anxiety disorder
Don't forget everybody worries in their life
It's how you deal with that worry
And what you worry about so to reiterate that point if you answered less than three
Yeses to my questions [is] highly unlikely that you are suffering from an anxiety disorder
if you answered over four yeses
To these questions is highly likely that you are suffering from a general anxiety disorder
[if] that was you and you entered more than four yeses then there's ways around
Controlling and helping your anxiety the first way to help your anxiety is
Make an appointment with your local Gp. If you haven't done so already
Explain and tell your local Gp. How you are feeling and how it affects your life on a day-To-day, basis
They will probably give you some sort of medication to help control your anxiety
They will also more than likely
Send you to a talking therapy session whether that's an individual session or a group session whichever you prefer
they will send you [two] which together can actually help you overcome your fears and your
Anxiety the second point is you can get in contact with me or with my?
