Journal Title: Acta Facultatis Medicae Naissensis - Year 2019, Vol 36, Issue 2

Abstract

The frequency of anxiety disorders has been significantly increasing during the last few decades, especially within the younger population. This review article inclines to explain the differences between fear and anxiety, types of disorders that might mimic anxiety or induce it, and the involvement of different neural circuits in the processing of anxiety information. A significant portion of the paper is dedicated to the current pharmacological treatment of these disorders which represents a basis for the treatment of anxiety. Also, we addressed a potential application of herbal remedies for the treatment of different anxiety spectrum disorders.
