part 2 Generalized Anxiety Disorders and Phobias.pdfTracyLewis47
Abnormal Psychology includes the study of Generalized Anxiety Disorder and Phobias. This presentation provides an introduction to GAD and outlines the diagnostic criteria from the DSM5.
Anxiety disorders include disorders that share features of excessi.docxYASHU40
Anxiety disorders include disorders that share features of excessive fear and anxiety and related behavioral disturbances. Fear is the emotional response to real or perceived imminent threat, whereas anxiety is anticipation of future threat. Obviously, these two states overlap, but they also differ, with fear more often associated with surges of autonomic arousal necessary for fight or flight, thoughts of immediate danger, and escape behaviors, and anxiety more often associated with muscle tension and vigilance in preparation for future danger and cautious or avoidant behaviors. Sometimes the level of fear or anxiety is reduced by pervasive avoidance behaviors. Panic attacks feature prominently within the anxiety disorders as a particular type of fear response. Panic attacks are not limited to anxiety disorders but rather can be seen in other mental disorders as well.
The anxiety disorders differ from one another in the types of objects or situations that induce fear, anxiety, or avoidance behavior, and the associated cognitive ideation. Thus, while the anxiety disorders tend to be highly comorbid with each other, they can be differentiated by close examination of the types of situations that are feared or avoided and the content of the associated thoughts or beliefs.
Anxiety disorders differ from developmentally normative fear or anxiety by being excessive or persisting beyond developmentally appropriate periods. They differ from transient fear or anxiety, often stress-induced, by being persistent (e.g., typically lasting 6 months or more), although the criterion for duration is intended as a general guide with allowance for some degree of flexibility and is sometimes of shorter duration in children (as in separation anxiety disorder and selective mutism). Since individuals with anxiety disorders typically overestimate the danger in situations they fear or avoid, the primary determination of whether the fear or anxiety is excessive or out of proportion is made by the clinician, taking cultural contextual factors into account. Many of the anxiety disorders develop in childhood and tend to persist if not treated. Most occur more frequently in females than in males (approximately 2:1 ratio). Each anxiety disorder is diagnosed only when the symptoms are not attributable to the physiological effects of a substance/medication or to another medical condition or are not better explained by another mental disorder.
The chapter is arranged developmentally, with disorders sequenced according to the typical age at onset. The individual with separation anxiety disorder is fearful or anxious about separation from attachment figures to a degree that is developmentally inappropriate. There is persistent fear or anxiety about harm coming to attachment figures and events that could lead to loss of or separation from attachment figures and reluctance to go away from attachment figures, as well as nightmares and physical symptoms of distress. Although the sympt.
Illness does not ask, it demands. Younger population perceives the un-earning family members as burden on their shoulders with more responsibility, which is taken as an economic loss, even if they are their parents. Anxiety is a broad aspect, which should not be termed as illness- as it is common emotion to experience in every individual’s life. But in 21st century due to defective coping mechanism, poor socialization, sedentary lifestyle- anxiety has become the slow poison to majority of the population, globally. Especially to the elder age group, which highlights the need of quick concern to look after it genuinely. Anxiety is an broad spectrum of disorder, constituting many of the forms which ae common for the human behavior to perform in the society. Management plays the essential role in conflicting the anxiety. Problem solving skills, coping mechanism and self esteem are the basics to tackle the anxiety as a whole.
What are the Symptoms of Anxiety disorderShivaniPadole
Experiencing intermittent anxiety disorder is a normal part of life. However, people with anxiety disorders frequently experience intense, excessive, and pervasive anxiety and worry about everyday events. Anxiety disorders typically present as recurrent, brief bouts of intense anxiety, fear, or terror that are accompanied by panic attacks. These sensations of frenzy and uneasiness can keep going for quite a while, are challenging to control, messed up with regards to the genuine danger, and disrupt day to day exercises. You might avoid places or situations to avoid these feelings. Side effects might begin during youth or the high schooler years and go on into adulthood. Tension issues incorporate summed up uneasiness jumble, social anxiety disorder (social fear), explicit fears, and separation anxiety disorder. Multiple anxiety disorders are treatable. Anxiety can arise from a condition that needs treatment.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

3. What Are Anxiety Disorders?
• Anxiety is a normal reaction to stress and can be beneficial in
some situations. It can alert us to dangers and help us prepare
and pay attention.
• Anxiety refers to anticipation of a future concern and is more
associated with muscle tension and avoidance behavior.
• Fear is an emotional response to an immediate threat and is
more associated with a fight or flight reaction – either staying to
fight or leaving to escape danger.
• Anxiety disorders can cause people into try to avoid situations
that trigger or worsen their symptoms. Job performance, school
work and personal relationships can be affected.
4. Because symptoms are so severe, many people who experience a
panic attack may believe they are having a heart attack or other
life-threatening illness and may go to a hospital ER. Panic attacks
may be expected, such as a response to a feared object, or
unexpected, apparently occurring for no reason. The mean age for
onset of panic disorder is 22-23. Panic attacks may occur with
other mental disorders such as depression or PTSD.
5. In general, for a person to be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder,
the fear or anxiety must:
Be out of proportion to the situation or age inappropriate
Hinder your ability to function normally
There are several types of anxiety disorders, including generalized
anxiety disorder, panic disorder, specific phobias, agoraphobia,
social anxiety disorder and separation anxiety disorder.
6. Types of Anxiety Disorders
1. Generalized Anxiety Disorder
Generalized anxiety disorder involves persistent and excessive
worry that interferes with daily activities. This ongoing worry
and tension may be accompanied by physical symptoms, such as
restlessness, feeling on edge or easily fatigued, difficulty
concentrating, muscle tension or problems sleeping.
2. Panic Disorder
The core symptom of panic disorder is recurrent panic attacks, an
overwhelming combination of physical and psychological
distress. During an attack several of these symptoms occur in
combination:
7. Palpitations, pounding heart or rapid heart rate
Sweating
Trembling or shaking
Feeling of shortness of breath or smothering sensations
Chest pain
Feeling dizzy, light-headed or faint
Feeling of choking
Numbness or tingling
Chills or hot flashes
Nausea or abdominal pains
Feeling detached
Fear of losing control
Fear of dying
8. 3. Phobias, Specific Phobia
A specific phobia is excessive and persistent fear of a specific
object, situation or activity that is generally not harmful. Patients
know their fear is excessive, but they can’t overcome it. These
fears cause such distress that some people go to extreme lengths
to avoid what they fear. Examples are fear of flying or fear of
spiders.
4. Agoraphobia
Agoraphobia is the fear of being in situations where escape may
be difficult or embarrassing, or help might not be available in the
event of panic symptoms. The fear is out of proportion to the
actual situation and lasts generally six months or more and causes
problems in functioning. A person with agoraphobia experiences
this fear in two or more of the following situations:
9. Using public transportation
Being in open spaces
Being in enclosed places
Standing in line or being in a crowd
Being outside the home alone
The individual actively avoids the situation, requires a
companion or endures with intense fear or anxiety. Untreated
agoraphobia can become so serious that a person may be unable
to leave the house. A person can only be diagnosed with
agoraphobia if the fear is intensely upsetting, or if it significantly
interferes with normal daily activities.
10. 5. Social Anxiety Disorder (previously called social phobia)
A person with social anxiety disorder has significant anxiety and
discomfort about being embarrassed, humiliated, rejected or
looked down on in social interactions. People with this disorder
will try to avoid the situation or endure it with great anxiety.
Common examples are extreme fear of public speaking, meeting
new people or eating/drinking in public. The fear or anxiety
causes problems with daily functioning and lasts at least six
months.
6. Separation Anxiety Disorder
11. A person with separation anxiety disorder is excessively fearful
or anxious about separation from those with whom he or she is
attached. The feeling is beyond what is appropriate for the
person’s age, persists (at least four weeks in children and six
months in adults) and causes problems functioning. A person
with separation anxiety disorder may be persistently worried
about losing the person closest to him or her, may be reluctant or
refuse to go out or sleep away from home or without that person,
or may experience nightmares about separation. Physical
symptoms of distress often develop in childhood, but symptoms
can carry though adulthood.
12. Risk Factors
The causes of anxiety disorders are currently unknown but likely
involve a combination of factors including genetic,
environmental, psychological and developmental. Anxiety
disorders can run in families, suggesting that a combination of
genes and environmental stresses can produce the disorders.
Diagnosis and Treatment
The first step is to see your doctor to make sure there is no
physical problem causing the symptoms. If an anxiety disorder is
diagnosed, a mental health professional can work with you on the
best treatment. Unfortunately, many people with anxiety
disorders don’t seek help. They don’t realize that they have an
illness that has effective treatments.
13. Although each anxiety disorder has unique characteristics, most
respond well to two types of treatment: psychotherapy, or “talk
therapy,” and medications. These treatments can be given alone
or in combination. Cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), a type of
talk therapy, can help a person learn a different way of thinking,
reacting and behaving to help feel less anxious. Medications will
not cure anxiety disorders, but can give significant relief from
symptoms.
