Donald Trump, Fear and "Trump Anxiety Disorder".
A response to a news article that recently came out saying US Therapists are seeing an Increase in Patients With 'Trump Anxiety Disorder'
Symptoms include feeling as if the world is going to end, uncertainty about the political climate and feeling 'on edge' about Trumps decisions and even those who have supported the president have reported feeling isolated within social spaces or even within their own families.
If you look at our 5 step framework for Anxiety, the steps go like this...
1. Trigger
2. Impact
3. Change
4. Cascade
5. Recovery
Clearly this is a response to steps #2 and #3 (Impact and Change) and a response to the loss of control and volatility of the current political climate, as well as an excessive time spent on social media.
