What is the TCM explanation for the symptoms of anxiety disorders

Anxiety disorders belong to the category of “depression” in Chinese medicine. The occurrence of depression is often related to factors such as emotional discomfort, excessive thinking and dietary disorders. This disease is located in the brain, involving the liver, heart, gallbladder, spleen and kidney. The basic mechanism of the disease is stagnation of qi, and dysfunction of yin and yang, qi and blood in the internal organs. The heart is the master of god, if the qi and blood is insufficient, the heart and god are not in charge, it will lead to anxiety symptoms; phlegm and stagnation of internal obstruction, gallbladder deficiency, decision-making failure, etc., also lead to anxiety symptoms; if the liver is depressed and qi stagnation (the liver’s qi and blood is not flowing well, depression), qi depression and fire, sadness disrupting the heart and god, it will also appear in the heart and god are not master of god, anxiety symptoms. Chinese medicine believes that anxiety is mostly caused by qi and blood deficiency, liver qi stagnation (poor qi and blood transportation of the liver, emotional depression) leading to qi imbalance, elevation and movement disorders, and loss of tonicity of the spleen. It needs to be treated symptomatically by replenishing qi and blood, tonifying the heart and spleen, detoxifying the liver and relieving depression (treating depression by unblocking the liver’s qi), regulating qi, and tranquilizing the mind. Chinese medicine treats anxiety disorders mostly through the method of traditional Chinese medicine to regulate, can be combined with acupuncture and other methods of treatment at the same time. Most of the symptomatic treatments use methods such as dredging the liver, tonifying the kidney, strengthening the stomach, dissolving phlegm, regulating qi, and tranquilizing the mind. If you have similar symptoms, you should go to the hospital in time to avoid delaying your condition.
