Yes, especially if it’s affecting your daily life. If you have any further questions or need more clarity, please consult with a psychiatrist. If you`re in Texas, we welcome you to reach out to www.MidCitiesPsychiatry.com, we`re here to help you.
A therapist can help treat anxiety by helping to identify patterns to break that are causing/exacerbating anxiety, teaching coping skills (e.g., relaxation skills and cognitive skills to manage thoughts), and providing support for changes in life to moderate symptoms. This is enough for some people, but others may also need therapy in combination with medication, if their anxiety is too high to allow skills to be learned and used properly.
Yes a psychologist or psychiatrist , your PCP can refer.
