Today I am grateful for and appreciate the live-on Facebook session titled "Anxiety disorders, causes and its management" at Malton Bazm-E-Khawateen page. Today's session was hosted by Gulnaz Rehan, coordinated by Aasia Khatoon and facilitated by Arshi Ali (Registered Psychotherapist). Today's session was the most demanded session by the community as the anxiety increased during COVID. I recognize and comprehend its significance for a variety of reasons, for instance:
- Malton Bazm-E-Khawateen is surprisingly spreading the awareness of mental health and wellbeing in the community. These sessions are at the virtual mode via Facebook live-on, easy to join from Pakistan, India, Bangladesh and the Canadian community
- These sessions are free of cost for the community, it is a huge relief for the attendees at this time of the COVID 19. These types of customized sessions are costly and would have been hard for many women to join
- Today's session highlighted the understanding of anxiety and its various expressions. Today's understanding is:
- Anxiety definition in reference to DSM 5
- Iceberg of anxiety and next stage
- Causes of anxiety
- Anxiety disorders and their types and symptoms
- Phobias
- Social anxiety
- Panic attack
- Generalized anxiety disorder
- Obsessive-Compulsive disorder
- Separation anxiety disorder
- Topic to be continued to the next session
