What Is An Anxiety Disorder?
Anxiety disorders are more than just feeling worried or stressed. They’re real medical conditions that affect millions of people, causing persistent fear and worry that interferes with daily life. At Philly Sober Living House, we recognize that everyone’s experience with anxiety is unique, and we tailor our approach to meet your specific needs.
While occasional anxiety is normal, an anxiety disorder involves excessive worry that doesn’t go away and may worsen over time. These feelings can interfere with work, school, relationships, and other daily activities.
Common Signs of Anxiety Disorders Include:
- Persistent worry about everyday situations
- Restlessness and feeling on edge
- Difficulty concentrating or mind going blank
- Irritability and mood changes
- Muscle tension and fatigue
- Sleep disturbances
- Avoiding situations that trigger anxiety

Is Normal Anxiety the Same as Generalized Anxiety Disorder?
Many people wonder if their anxiety is “normal” or something more serious. Normal anxiety is temporary and tied to specific situations – like before a job interview or big presentation. It’s your body’s natural response to stress and actually helps you stay alert and focused.
Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), however, involves persistent, excessive worry about various aspects of life, even when there’s little or no reason to worry. This type of anxiety doesn’t go away and can make everyday activities feel overwhelming.
At Philly Sober Living House, we help you understand the difference and provide appropriate treatment regardless of where you fall on the anxiety spectrum. You don’t have to suffer in silence – help is available.
Types of Anxiety Disorder Treatments
At Philly Sober Living House, we offer comprehensive treatment options proven effective for anxiety disorders. Our approach is flexible and personalized because we know that what works for one person may not work for another.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT): CBT helps you identify and change negative thought patterns that contribute to anxiety. This evidence-based approach teaches practical skills you can use in everyday situations.
Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT): DBT focuses on teaching healthy coping skills, emotional regulation, and mindfulness techniques to manage anxiety and stress more effectively.
Group Therapy: Connect with others facing similar challenges in a supportive environment. Group sessions provide perspective and reduce feelings of isolation.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Anxiety
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is one of the most effective treatments for anxiety disorders. At Philly Sober Living House, our CBT specialists work with you to understand the connection between your thoughts, feelings, and behaviors.
Through CBT, you’ll learn to recognize anxious thoughts before they spiral out of control and develop healthier ways of thinking and responding to stressful situations. This approach gives you practical tools you can use long after treatment ends.
Thought Challenging in CBT for Anxiety
One of the key components of CBT at Philly Sober Living House is learning to challenge anxious thoughts. This process helps you develop a more realistic and balanced way of thinking about situations that typically trigger your anxiety.
Identify the Negative Thought
The first step is becoming aware of the anxious thoughts as they occur. This takes practice but becomes easier over time.
Examine the Evidence
Look at the facts supporting and contradicting your anxious thought. Often, you’ll find the evidence doesn’t support your worst fears.
Reframe the Thought
Create more realistic thoughts based on the evidence. This helps reduce anxiety and leads to healthier emotional responses.
Exposure Therapy for Anxiety
Exposure therapy is another effective treatment we offer at Philly Sober Living House. This approach helps you gradually face your fears in a safe, controlled environment with the support of our trained therapists.
Rather than avoiding situations that cause anxiety, exposure therapy helps you build confidence by proving to yourself that you can handle these situations. We start small and progress at your pace, ensuring you feel supported throughout the process.
This treatment is particularly effective for specific phobias, social anxiety, and panic disorder. Our therapists will work with you to create a personalized exposure plan that feels manageable and empowering.
Additional Therapies for Anxiety Disorders
Beyond CBT and exposure therapy, Philly Sober Living House offers a range of complementary treatments to support your recovery from anxiety. We believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms.
Our Additional Services Include:
- Mindfulness and meditation training
- Stress management workshops
- Family therapy and support
- Peer support groups
- Holistic wellness approaches
- Life skills and coping strategy development
- Medication management support
