conditions such as panic disorder, generalized anxiety disorder, social phobia, specific
phobia, agoraphobia, obsessive compulsive disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder

Anxiety disorders are one of the most prevalent psychiatric conditions occurring in
about 18 percent of the population (Kessler et al., 2005). Anxiety disorders may be
influenced by genetics and environmental factors and commonly occur with other physical
conditions such as cardiovascular, respiratory and gastrointestinal disease as well
other mental illnesses such as depression and substance-abuse disorders (Psychiatric
Association, 2000). Furthermore, a significant proportion of pediatric psychiatric
patients have anxiety disorders.;
