Anxiety can affect sleep, concentration, relationships, and the ability to get through an ordinary day. KC Psychiatry & Primary Care provides adult psychiatric care in Kansas City for people dealing with persistent worry, panic symptoms, social anxiety, and anxiety that occurs alongside depression, ADHD, trauma, or medical concerns.
You do not need to manage these symptoms alone or wait until they become overwhelming. A psychiatric evaluation can help clarify what you are experiencing and what type of care may fit your situation.
Signs It May Be Time to Talk With a Psychiatrist
Anxiety can show up in different ways. Some people feel constantly tense or expect the worst. Others have panic symptoms, avoid situations they once handled, or lose sleep because their thoughts will not slow down.
- Persistent worry that is hard to control
- Panic symptoms, including a racing heart, shortness of breath, or fear of losing control
- Sleep problems, irritability, or trouble concentrating
- Avoiding work, social situations, travel, or other daily activities
- Anxiety that affects relationships, responsibilities, or physical health
These symptoms can also overlap with depression, ADHD, trauma-related symptoms, sleep problems, or medical conditions. A careful evaluation helps identify the factors that need attention.
What Happens During an Anxiety Evaluation
Your appointment begins with a conversation about your current concerns, health history, symptoms, prior treatment, medications, sleep, and daily functioning. Bring a list of current medications and any records that may help explain your history.
Dr. Asif Uddin will discuss the next appropriate step based on that information. This may include further evaluation, medication options, follow-up care, coordination with another clinician, or a referral for therapy or another service when appropriate.
