Anxiety disorder is actually the result of stagnation of qi and organs, and imbalance of yin and yang qi and blood in the internal organs

Anxiety disorder, an increasingly common mental health problem in modern society, actually has its own unique interpretation from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the essence of anxiety disorder is the result of stagnation of qi and organs, and imbalance of yin and yang, qi and blood in the internal organs. This disorder can lead to emotional instability and restlessness, which can trigger anxiety symptoms.

Qi stagnation will further lead to the imbalance of yin and yang, qi and blood in the internal organs. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the internal organs of the human body have their own yin and yang attributes, and they are interdependent and mutually restrictive, and jointly maintain the normal physiological functions of the human body. When the balance of yin and yang in the internal organs is broken, or there is a problem in the process of generating, running, depleting, and transforming qi and blood, it may cause anxiety symptoms.

To better understand this point of view, I would like to share a practical case.

Xiao Xuan (pseudonym), male, 28 years old, because of the pressure of long-term work, and recently quarreled with his girlfriend, he had insomnia, palpitations, irritability and other anxiety symptoms, and he didn't pay attention to it at first. But it lasted for a long time and has not yet recovered. They came to the clinic and found me.

Patients report that they often sweat when they are irritable, have difficulty falling asleep at night, often sleep for 2-3 hours, palpitations, restlessness, sometimes soreness in the body, and are accompanied by symptoms such as dry mouth and bitter mouth, twitching fingers, suffocation, dizziness and nausea. Energetic and in a state of high alertness.

Diagnosis: yellow and greasy tongue, thin pulse, extreme excitement, dialectic of qi stagnation, heart and spleen deficiency, lack of qi and blood, and abnormal liver and gallbladder excretion.

Treatment: soothing the liver and relieving depression, strengthening the spleen and nourishing the heart, and harmonizing qi and blood (traditional Chinese medicine pays attention to one person, in order to prevent patients from using drugs without authorization, the solution will no longer be announced).

After taking 14 doses, the patient's body aches and pains were significantly reduced, and the frequency of sweating was also reduced. After taking it for a month, the dry mouth and bitterness of the mouth have been relieved, and the dizziness and suffocation have disappeared. Although there are occasional palpitations, they are alleviated compared to before. Continue to take it for one month, the patient's physical condition is completely improved, in order to prevent the condition**, insist on taking it for half a month, and then stop the drug. Follow-up for one year, not **.

Traditional Chinese medicine theory believes that the liver is known as the mother of the heart. If the liver qi is insufficient, then the qi of the internal organs will lose compliance, especially the heart will become confused. Due to the weakness of the constitution and the lack of emotion, the patient leads to liver loss and blood imbalance. It will show symptoms such as timidity, irritability, sleeplessness, nightly dreams, and palpitations.

In short, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, anxiety disorder is the result of stagnation of qi and organs, and imbalance of yin and yang, qi and blood in the internal organs. Through the comprehensive use of drugs**, lifestyle modifications, and non-drugs**, we can effectively alleviate anxiety symptoms and restore physical and mental harmony and health. If you have a similar situation, you can communicate with me.
