Abstract
Depression and Anxiety disorders are the two most prevail mental health conditions, and their proportion among people is growing year by year. Majority Anxiety disorders are generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), panic disorder, and social anxiety disorder (SAD). The gut-brain-micro biome (BGM) axis is an emerging area of research that studies two-way communication between the gut micro-biome and the brain. Studies have shown that the BGM axis can affect stress response, anxiety and depression. Interventions in the BGM axis, through probiotics such as Lactobacillus, have some benefits for anxiety and related disorders such as Hyperuricemia. This article briefly describes the different types of anxiety disorders, and discusses the diagnostic criteria, symptoms, morbidity and treatment options for each disorder. It highlights the current state of research on anxiety disorders, with emphasis on genetics, neuroimaging, and the gut-brain-microbiome (BGM) axis. Potential areas for further research and development of new therapeutic approaches were highlighted.
