Cognitive Therapies And Failure To Launch Anxiety Syndrome

By Ronald Olson


In many cases, children whom suffer from Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder and others growing up dealing with depressive disorders suffer from Failure To Launch Anxiety Syndrome. As such, there is often a need for ongoing support when it comes to functional improvement. For, it can often be difficult to leave home or function on a regular basis when suffering from these issues.

While most often professionals base a diagnosis on the level of improvement in clients, not all can improve. In many cases, seeing improvement in children whom have had issues since birth due to a chemical imbalance in the brain, or those effected by trauma can often take a lot more time than others. In either case, there are several aspects which need be considered before releasing these individuals into general society.

These issues include whether an individual is feeling happier, has a connection to the real world and can leave home and function in public. In addition, it is essential that if and when doing so, the individual have a clear understanding of the difference between reality and imagination. If so, many can often learn how to take care of personal responsibilities such as taking public transportation, grocery shopping and going to events and medical appointments.

Relationships with friends, lovers and family members is an important aspect of life for these individuals. For, often the more acceptance and love the individual receives, the better. Man of those effected by the syndrome are at important life stages. For example, moving from childhood into teenage years or teenage years into adulthood. In either case, there are a lot of hormonal changes going on in the body whether male or female which can effect the anxiety levels associated with the condition.

Talk therapy is not often enough to keep these individuals on-track on an ongoing basis. In most cases, there will still need to be ongoing therapy. When taking medication, it is important to obtain a review to determine whether or not there may need to be a change based on changes in the level anxiety an individual may be suffering at any given time.

Also, the first time an individual leaves home for the first time after having been housebound, a chaperon is often recommended. For, it can often be overwhelming when stepping back out into public for the first time. Whether going to a grocery, taking a bus or attending an event, a chaperon can often make the experience far more enjoyable for the individual.

If going outside or leaving home and the individual becomes overwhelmed with anxiety, it is important to turn back. For, while many suffering from this condition can do so, it is not the case for everyone. As such, it is important to recognize and support the needs of those suffering from anxiety at any given time.

While the cognitive therapeutic approach can help many individuals suffering from this condition, there are others whom might need a combination of treatment. In many cases, attachments associated with the mind such as traumas or chemical imbalances can prevent an individual from letting go. While this is the case, it is important that these individuals continue treatment, for there may be a time in the future where it becomes easier to do so.
