Symptoms And Symptoms Of Anxiety Disorders - 1665 Words

Anxiety Disorders With having so many natural explanations for the potential development of a mood disorder, do anxiety disorders also have natural components? The study conducted by Balik, et al. (2014) didn’t only contain findings of PMS and mood disorders; they also found evidence relating PMS to anxiety disorders. They reported that â€Å"more than half of women with PMS have a history of anxiety† (p 373). Does this mean that PMS is indicative of an anxiety disorder or is it the other way around? Regardless of which comes first, having one may also mean that woman has the other. If a woman has PMS they may also have anxiety and vice versa, if a woman has anxiety they may also suffer from PMS. Additionally, Gagua, et al. (2013) had similar†¦show more content†¦1584). Essentially, because identical twins share 100% of their genes regarding a single trait, it makes sense they would also share 100% of their genes regarding the covariation of two or more traits. They also found a higher neuroticism score for women, which indicates a higher likelihood of GAD. Environmental, or Nurture With such clean implications of natural influences towards mood disorders such as depression, and anxiety disorders, genetics (and biology) clearly play a large role in the development of disorders. Theoretically, environmental factors would play just as important a role in the development of these disorders, as all genetics really do is create a predisposition towards the disorder and doesn’t necessarily cause it, after all, plenty of psychologists (and many other scientists) would argue that humans are merely a product of their environment. Mood Disorders Similar to natural factors, the first type of disorder to examine is mood disorders. Taking the results that Balik, et al. (2014) and Gagua, et al. (2013) found that dysmenorrhea and PMS show an increased risk of a depressive disorder, this is not necessarily a biological implication. While the PMS (or the dysmenorrhea) is, itself biological, the ensuing mood disorder is not necessarily also
