Understanding anxiety
When worry takes over
Everyone feels anxious sometimes. Anxiety becomes a problem when it is constant, hard to control and starts shaping your sleep, work and relationships.
Ketamine acts on glutamate and helps the brain form new connections, which can loosen long-standing patterns of worry and panic. Counseling gives you tools to keep that progress. For anxiety that comes with depression, Exomind TMS may also be an option.
Common signs
- Constant worry that's hard to switch off
- Racing thoughts or overthinking
- Panic attacks or a racing heart
- Trouble sleeping or staying asleep
- Avoiding places or people because of fear
