📋Overview
These conditions represent a range of psychiatric disorders where feelings of apprehension or dread do not dissipate and may intensify over time. Unlike typical stress responses, these disorders involve sustained emotional reactions that can impact social, occupational, and personal areas of life.
Clinical frameworks categorize various specific manifestations, including generalized worry, panic episodes, and social distress, as part of this broader diagnostic group. These persistent states are often characterized by neurological signaling that maintains a heightened sense of alertness even when no immediate threat is present.
