The underlying causes of anxiety can be due to several reasons. It could be due to a stressful life event, there could be an underlying medical condition or it could be an emerging mental disorder. <\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

But mostly, it’s due to the standards you set yourself and the lifestyle you live. If you ignore your inner divinity, the demons make themselves at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anxiety disorders are the most common psychiatric problem among adults. It is estimated that <\/span>over 40 million people in the US alone suffer some form of anxiety<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Medical institutions cite a whole range of triggers for anxiety. These range from heart disease, to external factors such as caffeine, drugs or alcohol and even race, age or gender anxiety. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

However, there is often an underlying cause of anxiety that prompts individuals to turn to substances or feel insecure about their race, age or gender in the first place. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I find it striking that hardly any medical institutions cite a lack of psychological development as underlying causes of anxiety. Fortunately, mental health practitioners acknowledged <\/span>anxiety disorders are neurodevelopment in their origin<\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Why is Recognising the Underlying Causes of Anxiety Important?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Healthcare professionals will tell you that to improve your health you need to find an underlying cause of the problem rather than merely treating a symptom.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Symptoms are merely an indication that something needs addressing. They should serve as a prompt to dig deeper to understand the underlying cause. Treating the symptom alone merely masks the problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Taking a pill to manage your anxiety is a temporary solution that will not repair the underlying cause until you address the root cause of your feelings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Anxiety is a symptom that you are not taking good care of your emotional wellbeing. In my experience, it was because I didn’t know what I really liked or what interested me so I just did what my friends did even though I didn’t enjoy it. I was a creative growing up in a totally mainstream town.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lifestyle choices play a major role in your psychological and emotional development. If your emotional well-being is not cared for, anxiety surfaces to inform you that something is wrong.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this article, I identify three reasons you probably suffer from anxiety. They are not symptoms, they are the root cause. And the difference between identifying symptoms and recognising the cause is the first step to healing. <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

And you won\u2019t need medication either! <\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

A lack of Self-Worth<\/span><\/strong> <\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A lack of self-worth is typically described as a lack of self-esteem by mental health professionals. Signs that you have low self-esteem include:<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n
