Anxiety Disorders and Addiction

While feelings of anxiety are part of every one's life, Anxiety Disorders are characterized by irrational, uncontrollable, and debilitating levels of anxiety. Self medication with addictive substances are often used to suppress the anxiety. As a result, addiction often co-occurs with Anxiety Disorders.

Five major types of anxiety disorders are:
1. Generalized Anxiety Disorder
2. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
3. Panic Disorder
4. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
5. Social Phobia (or Social Anxiety Disorder)

Robert A Bohls is a Licensed Chemical Dependency Counselor and Trauma and Addictive Disorders Therapist with over 15 years of experience as a therapist.

Robert believes that many of life's problems stem from the un-explored parts of ourselves. These 'parts' are trying to find expression and the longer we ignore and repress them, the worse we think and feel about ourselves.
