😟 Constant Worrying — Just a Habit or a Hidden Disorder?

In today’s fast-paced and high-pressure world, worrying has become second nature to many of us. But when worrying turns chronic — affecting sleep, health, confidence, and daily life — it may signal something deeper: anxiety disorder.

On this Doctors’ Day, our founder Dr. Jyothirmayi Kotipalli was featured in a leading Telugu daily to shed light on this very topic. The article addresses a question many silently carry:

“Is it normal to worry all the time — or do I need help?”

🔍 When Worry Crosses the Line

Everyone worries occasionally — about work, family, finances, or health. But persistent worrying that:

interferes with your concentration,
causes headaches, chest tightness, fatigue,
or leads to panic, irritability, or withdrawal
is not just a personality trait — it could be Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD).

This is one of the most common, yet under-recognized mental health conditions today.

🧠 What Triggers It?

As highlighted in the article, anxiety may emerge from:

Work pressure, exam fear, or job insecurity
Health concerns (especially post-COVID)
Hormonal shifts (postpartum, menopause)
Childhood stress, trauma, or perfectionism
Long-term stress without release mechanisms

Even housewives, children, and highly successful professionals are equally prone to it.

🩺 How We Help at Manaha Clinic

At Manaha Clinic, Kokapet, we regularly see patients who walk in saying,

“I can’t stop thinking.”

“My mind is always racing.”

“I feel tired but can’t sleep.”

We offer a scientific and holistic evaluation to understand whether it’s temporary stress, burnout, or a diagnosable anxiety condition.

Our Integrative Approach Includes:

Psychiatric consultation and diagnosis
Anxiety-focused psychotherapy
Yoga and breathing therapy for regulation
Medication (only when truly required)
Supportive diet and naturopathy
Virtual reality-based exposure therapy for phobias and panic

“Anxiety disorders are highly treatable, but stigma delays help-seeking. Early recognition can change lives.” — Dr. Jyothirmayi Kotipalli

📍 You’re Not Alone. You Just Need the Right Help.

In the spirit of Doctors’ Day, we urge everyone:

🕊️ Let’s normalize seeking help for overthinking and worry, just as we do for diabetes or BP.

🧘‍♂️ Mental health is health — and it’s our mission at Manaha to make care accessible, personalized, and stigma-free.
