Abstract
Anxiety disorders are among the most common mental health conditions, affecting millions worldwide. The treatment of anxiety often involves a combination of medication and therapy, each offering distinct advantages and limitations. While medication provides rapid symptom relief, therapy, particularly Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), addresses underlying cognitive and behavioral patterns contributing to anxiety. This article explores the effectiveness of medication and therapy in treating anxiety disorders, comparing their benefits, limitations, and the factors influencing treatment choices. By evaluating current research and clinical outcomes, the discussion highlights the importance of personalized treatment plans tailored to individual needs.
