Understanding Anxiety

Anxiety Treatment in Staten Island

Anxiety is a prevalent mental health condition characterized by excessive worry, nervousness, or fear severe enough to interfere with daily activities. Unlike typical anxiety that occurs in response to actual threats or stressful events, anxiety disorders are persistent and can escalate over time, impairing an individual’s ability to function.

The development of anxiety disorders usually involves a combination of genetic, biological, environmental, and psychological factors. They may be triggered by specific life events or stressors and sometimes appear without any clear cause.

It’s important to recognize anxiety as a legitimate medical condition—it’s not a sign of personal weakness or a lack of willpower. Anxiety disorders are serious and require appropriate treatment.

Identifying the Signs of Anxiety

Anxiety symptoms can vary significantly from person to person but generally include emotional, physical, and cognitive components:

Emotional Symptoms:

  • Persistent worry or fear about everyday situations
  • Feelings of restlessness or being on edge
  • Difficulty managing worry or fear
  • Irritability

Physical Symptoms:

  • Increased heart rate
  • Rapid breathing or shortness of breath
  • Sweating
  • Trembling or shaking
  • Fatigue
  • Trouble sleeping

Cognitive Symptoms:

  • Persistent nervousness or tension
  • Difficulty concentrating or staying focused
  • Fear of the worst, a sense of imminent danger, panic, or doom
  • Avoiding anxiety-inducing situations

I have a great down to earth provider. All of my appointments are virtual so I don’t have to schedule around them. The help center is actually extremely helpful and gets messages to your doctor with a response usually the same day. I highly recommend these services. Also they take insurance unlike most virtual doctors that cost hundreds just for a medication refill appointment.

I was recommended by a friend who said this place has helped her a lot. I was hesitant because of my experience with previous psychiatrists. But Janice is great. She really pays attention to my concerns, and I have been feeling such a sense of well being since having serviced with her. She is also extremely consistent. Sometimes our session lasts about 20 minutes or less because I hardly have any concerns regarding my medications. I appreciate her ability to really prescribe things that help long term. She also prescribed sleeping meds for my insomnia and I been sleeping earlier and better. I don’t wake up tired of weak. Thank you Janice 🙂

Been a patient here since early this year so this review is long overdue! Staff here has always been courteous and attentive. Natalie really listens and addresses any questions I have. Additionally she’s quick, efficient and on time for our monthly appts so I feel everyone is considerate of my time. I’m very well taken care of and feel so lucky to have landed here.

Dr. V. Rudoy is a wonderful doctor. Very professional and attentive. I have been seeing him for psychiatric care for a number of years and highly recommend him and this office in general. I’ve seen other psychiatric professionals who work with Dr. Rudoy here on occasion and they are all very competent and warm-hearted.

I have seen many many psychiatrists and Dr. Natalie Rimar is really as good as they come in this field. She is very well versed in the medical field and she gives you the time and attention every patient deserves as opposed to just going to any psychiatrist them giving just 5 minutes of their time and saying ok will RX you XYZ medication I sent it to your pharmacy goodbye. Dr. Rimar actually cares about her clients and takes her profession very seriously. Thank you Again!

I met with Mary Parker, a nurse practioner. She was very professional, friendly and knowledgeable. After asking questions about my history, she discussed different treatment possibilities. I was happy with the session and look forward to meeting with her again on a regular basis
