Abstract
In 2019, anxiety disorders constituted a significant share of the disability adjusted life years (DALYs) lost as a result of mental disorders. This study sought to examine the gender and age-specific distribution pattern and the trends of DALYs in anxiety disorders. Using descriptive methods, the study examined the trends in the DALYs of anxiety disorders in Indonesia from 1990 to 2019. The initial step was to extract age-standardized DALYs rates (ASR) data from the Global Health Data Exchange (GHDx) covering the period from 1990 to 2019. Trend data analysis used the joinpoint regression analysis. The results indicate that DALYs rate due to anxiety were higher in women as compared to men. The highest anxiety rate in Indonesia in both 1990 and 2019 was between 25-49 years old. Anxiety rates are important to monitor for stakeholders, particularly for women and those in the reproductive age groups.
