Anxiety Disorder: Symptoms, Diagnostic Criteria N Treatment
Posttraumatic Stress Disorder

Course and Prevalence
 PTSD can occur at any age, including childhood.
 Community based studies reveal a lifetime prevalence
for PTSD approximately 8% of adult population in United
States.
 Duration:
Acute: duration of symptoms less than 3 months.
Chronic: duration of symptoms last 3 months or longer.
With Delayed onset: 6 months have passed between the traumatic
event and the onset of symptoms.
Differential Diagnosis

THEORIES ON ANXIETY
DISORDER
 The Psychodynamic Theory
 The Humanistic- Existential Theory
 The Behavioral Theory
 The Neuroscience Theory
 The Cognitive Theory
 The Socio-cultural Theory
THE PSYCHODYNAMIC THEORY
 The fundamental concept is that anxiety is at the
root of neurosis.
 Anxiety stemmed in the form of unacceptable ID
impulses attempting to break through into
consciousness and behavior.
In all neurosis the relief of anxiety is sought through
various defense mechanism.
 For example, in panic attack, the cause that is id impulse moves
closer to the boundaries of conscious mind, resulting in rapid building up
of anxiety. The ego responds with desperate effort to repression, once the
ego regain upper hand the impulse once again safely repressed.
THE HUMANISTIC-EXISTENTIAL
THEORY
 Humanistic- existential theorists describe anxiety as
the outcome of the conflict between the individual
and society.
 According to humanists the source of neurosis is the
discrepancy between the self concept and the ideal
self.
 If the way we perceive ourselves is very different
from the way we would like to be, we feel incapable
of meeting life’s challenges, and anxiety results.
THE BEHAVIORAL THEORY

According to behaviorists avoidance is a
response learned to relieve anxiety.
 For example, Agoraphobia is a strategy to
avoid panic attacks in public.
Avoidance learning is a major source of
anxiety and is two-stage process:
1)
2)

Through respondent conditioning, a neutral
stimulus becomes anxiety arousing.
The avoidance response relieves anxiety through
negative reinforcement and becomes habitual.

 Another way of acquiring fear reactions is
through modeling.
THE NEUROSCIENCE THEORY
 Anxiety disorders appear to have genetic
basis.
In Norwegian study, the concordance rate
for panic disorder in MZ twins was 31
percent, as opposed to 0 percent for D
twins (Torgersen, 1983).
 Abnormalities in the neurotransmitters
gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) and
serotonin may have a particular role in
susceptibility to generalized anxiety
disorder.
Serotonin is a major player in OCD and
social phobia.
THE COGNITIVE THEORY
 According to the cognitive theory, people with
anxiety disorders misperceive or misinterpret
internal and external stimuli.
 Events that are not really threatening, and anxiety
results.
In the case of panic disorder, if a person upon
experiencing unusual bodily sensations
catastrophically, as a signal that he or she is about to
pass out or have a heart attack, then panic could
result.
THE SOCIO-CULTURAL THEORY
According to socio-cultural theorists, phobic and
GAD are more likely to develop in people who are
confronted with societal pressure.
Stressful changes have occurred in the society have
also increased the prevalence of anxiety disorders.

OCD prevalence is similar in many different cultures.  Age onset is earlier in males than females: between age 6 and 15 for males and between age 20 and 29 years for females. Differential diagnosis: • OCD is not diagnosed if the content of thoughts or activities related to another mental disorder like Body Dysmorphic disorder or Specific phobia. • Major depressive disorder. • Generalized Anxiety disorder. • Hypochondrias. • Additional diagnosis of delusional disorder or psychotic disorder not otherwise

  • 22. Course and Prevalence  PTSD can occur at any age, including childhood.  Community based studies reveal a lifetime prevalence for PTSD approximately 8% of adult population in United States.  Duration: Acute: duration of symptoms less than 3 months. Chronic: duration of symptoms last 3 months or longer. With Delayed onset: 6 months have passed between the traumatic event and the onset of symptoms.
  • 23. Differential Diagnosis  Acute Stress disorder  Adjustment disorder  Flash backs in PTSD should also be distinguished from hallucinations, illusions and other perceptual disturbances.

  • 26. Differential Diagnosis Distinguish from mental disorder due to general medical condition( e.g. head injury) and from Substance Induced disorder (e.g. related alcohol intoxication.  Major depressive disorder in diagnosed in addition to the diagnosis of Acute stress disorder.  PTSD  Adjustment Disorder
  • 27. THEORIES ON ANXIETY DISORDER  The Psychodynamic Theory  The Humanistic- Existential Theory  The Behavioral Theory  The Neuroscience Theory  The Cognitive Theory  The Socio-cultural Theory
  • 28. THE PSYCHODYNAMIC THEORY  The fundamental concept is that anxiety is at the root of neurosis.  Anxiety stemmed in the form of unacceptable ID impulses attempting to break through into consciousness and behavior. In all neurosis the relief of anxiety is sought through various defense mechanism.  For example, in panic attack, the cause that is id impulse moves closer to the boundaries of conscious mind, resulting in rapid building up of anxiety. The ego responds with desperate effort to repression, once the ego regain upper hand the impulse once again safely repressed.
  • 29. THE HUMANISTIC-EXISTENTIAL THEORY  Humanistic- existential theorists describe anxiety as the outcome of the conflict between the individual and society.  According to humanists the source of neurosis is the discrepancy between the self concept and the ideal self.  If the way we perceive ourselves is very different from the way we would like to be, we feel incapable of meeting life’s challenges, and anxiety results.
  • 30. THE BEHAVIORAL THEORY According to behaviorists avoidance is a response learned to relieve anxiety.  For example, Agoraphobia is a strategy to avoid panic attacks in public. Avoidance learning is a major source of anxiety and is two-stage process: 1) 2) Through respondent conditioning, a neutral stimulus becomes anxiety arousing. The avoidance response relieves anxiety through negative reinforcement and becomes habitual.  Another way of acquiring fear reactions is through modeling.
  • 31. THE NEUROSCIENCE THEORY  Anxiety disorders appear to have genetic basis. In Norwegian study, the concordance rate for panic disorder in MZ twins was 31 percent, as opposed to 0 percent for D twins (Torgersen, 1983).  Abnormalities in the neurotransmitters gamma-amino butyric acid (GABA) and serotonin may have a particular role in susceptibility to generalized anxiety disorder. Serotonin is a major player in OCD and social phobia.
  • 32. THE COGNITIVE THEORY  According to the cognitive theory, people with anxiety disorders misperceive or misinterpret internal and external stimuli.  Events that are not really threatening, and anxiety results. In the case of panic disorder, if a person upon experiencing unusual bodily sensations catastrophically, as a signal that he or she is about to pass out or have a heart attack, then panic could result.
  • 33. THE SOCIO-CULTURAL THEORY According to socio-cultural theorists, phobic and GAD are more likely to develop in people who are confronted with societal pressure. Stressful changes have occurred in the society have also increased the prevalence of anxiety disorders.
