Is Anxiety Disorder A Mental Illness?

No, it certainly is NOT!

Anxiety disorder is NOT a mental illness, it is a behavioral condition, there is a very BIG difference. Mental illnesses are clinical conditions which have a ‘biological’ basis (causedby chemical imbalance), anxiety disorders are caused by a ‘resetting’ of the’baseline’ anxiety level; this happens through reinforcing the anxiety disorder by repetitive anxious behavior as previously explained. There is NO other cause for anxiety disorders, FACT!

All of the symptoms you experience are caused by mal-adjusted reactions in the brain causing your mind and body to react with an inappropriate level of anxiety.

Doctors pigeon-hole their patients by naming their conditions and, because there is no pigeon-hole for anxiety as such, they label their patients as ‘mentally ill’, ‘neurotic’ or as ‘hypochondriacs’ – They are wrong! TRUE mental illness is very specific and can’t be treated through behavioral treatments alone – they require medicinal treatments also.

Anxiety disorder does not require any medicinal intervention, which is why psychologists have been treating anxiety disorders with psychotherapy for decades; it just falls short of providing a complete solution.

So, if anxiety disorder isn’t a mental illness, what can be done to correct it? The Linden Method addresses that issue directly, tackling the problem at the root cause, in the exact place where the anxious decisions are made. This is done without medicine, without medical treatment and without long-winded therapy programs. The Linden Method is so simple to understand and implement and has already treated tens of thousands of people in the last 2 years alone (this is when we introduced the latest version of the Linden Method.)

Sarah Coates, an in-house psychologist, left her job as a psychologist after working with Charles Linden to cure her anxiety disorder completely after just a few weeks. She too had been categorized as having a mental illness and was sure that it was wrong. She became disillusioned with what the psychology profession could achieve with anxious patients and since joining me in her quest to help people become well again, has now realized just how misguided psychology really is. Sarah’s quest to find a way of helping people has been realized, she now helps people become well again and gets so much from receiving the emails of gratitude from our clients.

The Anxiety ‘disorders’

Before I go on to provide the benefit of our research and experience with regard to the anxiety ‘disorders’, I must first explain my  understanding of the terms used by doctors and psychologists when diagnosing and categorizing these conditions.  I use the word disorder throughout this website for ease of use because it is what people are used to hearing, but, in principle, I am 100% against the use
of the word.

DISORDER – The word disorder suggests illness. You are neither physically or mentally ill, despite how you are feeling. Describing your anxiety condition as a disorder would mean that feeling hot, itching, sweating and other subconsciously controlled, physical reactions are also ‘disorders’, the suggestion is ludicrous!

MENTAL ILLNESS – You are not mentally ill! Mental illness is caused by physical brain injury or impairment or chemical imbalance. If you have been diagnosed with an anxiety disorder, you have neither! Anxiety conditions are NOT related to depression or other mental illnesses.

DEPRESSION – Anxiety conditions are NOT depression, despite what you may have heard or understood. Just because your doctor may have prescribed you an antidepressant medication, does not mean you have depression. Doctors are very good at misrepresenting anxiety conditions and dressing them up as mental illness, usually due to lack of knowledge and inexperience.

Depression is a clinical condition caused by chemical imbalance and not related to anxiety conditions in any way whatsoever. It is
true that some people with true, clinical depression may develop anxiety symptoms due to the severity and desperate nature of true depression, but it is our experience that anxiety sufferers do not develop true clinical depression. The desperation experienced by anxiety sufferers is NOT depression; it is an overwhelming feeling of hopelessness experienced by some anxiety sufferers.
