Treatment Options for Anxiety

Exposure Therapy

Exposure therapy might help you face the fears which trigger anxiety. You might raise the intensity of exposure over time or face these fears for an extended period. As a result, it will improve your anxiety levels and fears. For instance, if you feel frightened about flying, then you would start with thinking that you are flying in an aircraft. After a few weeks, you might work up to having a short flight or visiting the real airport. And the final goal is to take an overseas or cross-country flight. Make sure to undergo this therapy with the help of an experienced therapist. [4]
