What Is Aging Anxiety?
Aging anxiety is a serious concern regarding one’s future aging, which affects older adults’ physical and mental health and well-being. This worry about aging might also lead to loneliness and generate symptoms of depression.
The symptoms of anxiety related to aging are also shown to be overwhelming with the other activities in daily life, which altogether can give rise to a condition of old-age anxiety disorder.
Among the various types of anxiety disorder, most commonly Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD), Phobias, Panic disorder, Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) are found to be common in this case. A few signs of aging anxiety include:
- Anxious apprehension regarding health conditions in future
- Excessive worry about financial security in future
- Negative and anxious thoughts about being lonely in old-age
- Hiding one’s actual age by using anti-aging cosmetic products and other things
- Inability to accept aging as a part of the journey in life
