I learned the most about the anxiety disorder called phobias. I understood how it impairs many peoples daily lives because they have an underlying fear of one specific thing. I feel like I can relate most to this because I have a great fear of vomit. Whenever I see, hear it or come into contact with it, it can cause me to have an asthma attack.

I learned a lot about disorders that i thought were way different from what i read. I learned the most about PTSD. I understood this disorder and it made sense to me.

The anxiety disorder I learned about most was schizophrenia. This is because I never knew what people can be thinking and whats going through their mind even if they look 100% fine.

I learned most about General Anxiety Disorder (GAD.) While I have an understanding of anxiety I didn’t quite know every version or cause of it.For instance GAD explains the physical symptoms involving anxiety such as a racing heart and sweat two things I assumed could just be a coincidence.

panic disorders and phobias in my opinion are some of the worst disorders you can have when it comes to anxiety because of the repeating and fears of some people

The anxiety disorder, post traumatic stress disorder, is what I learned the most about. I thought it was just about stress and could be any type of stress, such as studying for three tests, but it is more serious than that. I have heard of this disorder before, but did not know much about it. I now know it must be very traumatic and people experience this through their dreams over and over again.

I learned the most about PTSD because one of my friends uncles has PTSD.

I learned the most about OCD. I learned a lot of new things about it because when most people think of OCD, they most likely assume that the person is just really “neat” and obsessive about where everything goes (at least that’s what I think of). I learned that it is a lot more than that and the obsessive qualities can be a lot more severe.

The most prevalent disorder I learned about was PTSD. Its when a person has experienced a very traumatic event such as war combat, a terrible car accident, being attacked by a stranger, etc. Afterwards, people with PTSD re-experience the event over and over in their dreams or in waking thoughts to the point that they have high levels of anxiety and have difficulty functioning.
