Talk to Psychiatry on Health Anxiety And Stress
Asking For Self, Female 24, Lahore
I am suffering from health anxiety and in extreme stress due to this condition be managed with CBT??
Yes, CBT is an effective way to deal with it but some patients may need medications such as SSRIs too. However, if a person is not willing to take SSRIs or other medications, there are multiple therapy techniques that can help with managing anxiety. Usually, it takes a few weeks to get it under control but Illness Anxiety Disorder is definitely treatable. You'll need a detailed psychiatric interview to establish the diagnosis and a suitable management plan can be devised accordingly.
