Generalisierte Angststörung

  • Chapter
Lehrbuch der Verhaltenstherapie, Band 2

Zusammenfassung

Die GAS ist eine häufige und sehr belastende Angststörung. Die Betroffenen leiden unter chronischer, anhaltender Angst, in deren Mittelpunkt ausgeprägte Sorgen stehen. Diese Sorgen sind ein wichtiger aufrechterhaltender Faktor der Störung, die der Emotionsregulation dienen. Neuere Ansätze zeichnen sich dadurch aus, dass sie eigens auf die GAS und ihre Bedingungsmodelle zugeschnitten werden. So wurden vor allem die Sorgen bzw. das Sorgenverhalten in das Zentrum der Behandlung gerückt. So wird ein eher verhaltenstherapeutisches konfrontatives Vorgehen vorgeschlagen, eine Kombination aus Konfrontation in sensu und in vivo. Aber auch die angewandte Entspannung ist erfolgreich in der Behandlung der GAS, oder achtsamkeitsbasierte Interventionen. Zum anderen gibt es Ansätze, die sich eher an der kognitiven Therapie orientieren, bei denen die Metakognitionen über die Sorgen im Mittelpunkt stehen. Voraussetzung für den Therapieerfolg ist eine gute Therapieplanung, die auch der hohen Komorbidität Rechnung trägt. Mit diesen verhaltenstherapeutischen Maßnahmen kann auch die chronische Störung der GAS erfolgreich und dauerhaft therapiert werden.
