About the Programme
The process of ageing can feel unfamiliar and may sometimes result in anxiety. However, as anxiety is experienced at varying intensities, it can be difficult to distinguish regular and severe levels of anxiety – the latter often requiring medical intervention. What are the signs we can look out for to determine if we should seek medical help?
In this interactive workshop, join psychiatrist Dr Seow Su Yin as she takes you through how to recognise anxiety and the ways to differentiate safe levels of anxiety from more serious anxiety that may be indicative of a disorder. Dr Seow will also share tips on self-care and improving both mental and physical health.
Take a look at these pre-reading materials to learn more about anxiety disorder and ways to achieve mental wellness:
