✅ Goes away when the stressor is resolved
✅ Can be motivating in small doses
✅ Common physical symptoms: tension, headaches, stomach issues
⚠️ Can feel overwhelming or constant
⚠️ Doesn’t always have an obvious cause
⚠️ Can interfere with daily functioning
⚠️ May include physical symptoms like rapid heart rate, fatigue, restlessness, or panic
If stress is a wave, anxiety is the undertow that lingers—and can pull you under if untreated.
Understanding whether you're experiencing stress or anxiety helps you choose the right tools for relief. Stress often responds well to self-care and time management. Anxiety may require more support, like therapy, mindfulness techniques, or medication.
At Lyte Psychiatry, we offer comprehensive mental health services tailored to both, including:
✅ Therapy for stress and anxiety
✅ Psychiatric evaluations
✅ Teen and adolescent support
✅ Lifestyle strategies to improve emotional balance
Here are a few proven strategies we recommend at Lyte Psychiatry:
1. Label What You're Feeling: Simply naming it—“This is stress” or “This feels like anxiety”—can reduce its intensity.
2. Breathe Deeply: Use deep breathing or box breathing to calm your nervous system.
3. Move Your Body: Even a 10-minute walk can help clear your mind and ease tension.
4. Practice Mindfulness: Be present. Try grounding exercises or guided meditations to stop spiraling thoughts.
5. Talk It Out: Whether it’s with a friend, therapist, or trusted adult, sharing your feelings helps you process and reset.
If your stress feels like it’s spiraling into anxiety—or if you’re unsure what’s going on—we’re here to help you figure it out, and feel better. We specialize in affordable, judgment-free care for both adults and adolescents across Dallas, TX, and surrounding areas.
