Why take this course?
🚀 Course Title: Anxiety and Depressive Disorders Lessons
🤝 Instructor: Bilal Semih Bozdemir
🧠 Understand the Complexities: Anxiety and Depressive Disorders (ADD) encompass a spectrum of emotional and cognitive experiences. This course delves into the intricacies of Mixed Anxiety-Depressive Disorder (MADD), a condition characterized by both anxiety and depressive symptoms of moderate intensity, accompanied by autonomic signs. Individuals with MADD do not necessarily meet the full criteria for specific anxiety or depressive disorders, highlighting the importance of nuanced understanding in mental health diagnoses.
🔼 333 Rule for Anxiety Relief: One practical tool you'll learn about is the 3-3-3 rule, a simple, grounding technique to alleviate anxiety. It involves looking around and identifying three items you can see, three noises you can hear, and three parts of your body you can move. This mindfulness practice can help you center yourself when feelings of worry become overwhelming.
👫 The Intersection of Anxiety & Depression: Anxiety disorders often walk hand-in-hand with depression, presenting as a constellation of intense and uncontrollable feelings of anxiety, fear, or panic that can significantly disrupt daily functioning and persist over time. These disorders manifest in various ways among different individuals, but common symptoms include uneasiness, restlessness, difficulty concentrating or remembering, and an overall feeling of being overwhelmed.
⚖️ Depression Without vs. With Anxiety: In depression without anxiety, you might feel a profound sense of hopelessness about the future. In contrast, when anxiety accompanies depression (sadness with anxious anticipation), you may find yourself worrying excessively, fearing the consequences of your worries, and ironically believing that dwelling on these worries is a way to control and lessen your anxiety.
