Anxiety Disorders Overview

Panic Disorder: Characterized by panic-like symptoms occurring in situations where escape or help is unlikely, such as public transportation or crowded places.
Specific Phobia: Intense fear and avoidance of specific objects or situations, disproportionate to actual risk; subtypes include animal, natural environment, blood-injection-injury, and situational.
Social Anxiety Disorder (Social Phobia): Fear of social interactions and scrutiny, leading to avoidance; involves fear of negative evaluation from others.
Separation Anxiety Disorder: Inappropriate fear of separation from attachment figures, may involve nightmares and physical symptoms in children.
Selective Mutism: Consistent inability to speak in social settings despite speaking in other situations, causing social communication issues; often co-occurs with social anxiety disorder.
Substance/Medication-Induced Anxiety Disorder: Anxiety resulting from substance use or withdrawal, or as a side effect of medication.
Anxiety Disorder Due to Another Medical Condition: Anxiety symptoms arising as a direct consequence of a medical condition.
Other Specified Anxiety Disorder: Anxiety symptoms causing significant distress or impairment but do not fit full criteria; clinician specifies the reason.
