Abstract
Anxiety disorders are the major mental illnesses globally, characterized by a persistent and variable clinical course. These disorders probably have a severe impact on a person’s ability to function personally, socially, and professionally. A person suffering from such disorders could affect the standard of living. Anxiety disorders are classified within the vague category of neurotic illnesses. General disorders such as apprehension, fearfulness, restlessness, and agoraphobia are among the current categories of anxiety disorders. Anxiety is advantageous from an evolutionary standpoint since it promotes survival by motivating individuals to avoid hazardous environments. The frequency of symptoms associated with anxiety that are associated with each other is around 2 to 4% in the general population, and it may rise up to 20% with non-psychotic conditions. Then present systematic review aims to assess virtual reality therapy’s (VRT) effectiveness in treating anxiety disorders. Our aim is to highlight the existing research to ascertain the effectiveness of VRT in alleviating symptoms of anxiety as well as its possible advantages and constraints in comparison to conventional therapeutic approaches. The review will further explore the fundamental mechanics of VRT and pinpoint any lacuna in the existing literature that necessitates more attention. Furthermore, these reviews are significant because they provide insightful information about how VRT could be used to treat anxiety and evaluate the effectiveness of VRT as a therapeutic intervention.
