Is your anxiety making you neglect other health problems? (Roizon article)
Anxiety is gripping the nation: An estimated 23.4% of females and 14.3% of males had an anxiety disorder in the past year. In addition, it’s estimated that Generalized Anxiety Disorder affects 8.5% to 10.5% of women during pregnancy and 4.4% to 10.8% during the postpartum period.
That’s why the U.S. Preventive Services Task Force has issued a recommendation that all adults ages 19 to 64 should be routinely screened for anxiety. Older folks? That would be on a case by case basis, since there isn’t research available that reveals how the risks and benefits play out.
It is important to treat anxiety because it can make it hard to establish relationships and to perform one’s job well. It can also lead to other health problems because of self-medicating with food, drink and drugs, or because it causes neglect of other conditions. For example, new data from more than 12,000 patients presented at the Annual European Congress of Rheumatology, EULAR 2023, show that those with anxiety are less likely to do a good job of managing their rheumatoid arthritis, psoriatic arthritis or axial spondyloarthritis. And, in my opinion, anxiety can also interfere with preventing and/or caring for cardiovascular problems, diabetes, and other chronic conditions.
