Hello Dinda, thank you for asking at HealthReplies.com.
Anxiety disorder is a mental disorder whose main symptom is anxiousness that appears excessively. This disorder can be divided into 3 types namely panic disorder, social anxiety disorder and also general anxiety disorder.
The complaint that you are feeling right now can be caused by a generalized anxiety disorder, but it can also be caused by other conditions such as depression, hypochondriaculture or post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
To be sure, because a mental health disorder requires a special examination of a person's mental status and whether a perceived complaint meets the diagnostic criteria of a disorder or not, then you should further consult your complaint with a psychiatric specialist (psychiatrist).
If indeed your condition is declared to have a certain mental health disorder, the doctor will assist you in determining what therapies should be given for your condition, including medication if it is felt necessary.
For the time being, try to always think positively about the condition of your own body, if there are indeed complaints in your body that are felt to be quite disturbing you can consult them further with your doctor. Divert your mind also from these things by doing other activities that you like and are positive.
I hope this helps.
