ANXIETY REFERS TO A VERY DISTRAUGHT AND FEARFUL REACTION TO A PARTICULAR STIMULUS WHICH IS ACTUALLY DISPROPORTIONATE TO THE AMOUNT OF FEAR THAT STIMULUS SHOULD INSTIGATE.

SOME ANXIETY IS HELPFUL FOR THE FUNCTIONING OF A PERSON BUT WHEN THAT ANXIETY INCREASES EXPONENTIALLY, IT CAN BE DETRIMENTAL TOWARDS THE DAILY ACTIVITIES OF THAT PERSON.

SOME COMMON FORMS OF ANXIETY DISORDERS ARE THE GAD, PANIC ATTACKS, PHOBIAS AND OCD.

CAUSES FOR ANXIETY DISORDER CAN BE CLASSIFIED INTO THE FOLLOWING MODELS OR CAUSES: BIOMEDICAL,BEHAVIORAL, PSYCHOANALYTICAL AND COGNITIVE.

THE BIOMEDICAL MODEL STATES THAT SOME OF OUR FEARS OR REACTIONS ARE HEREDITARY. WE ARE GENETICALLY PRONE TO REACT TO THOSE ASPECTS IN A FEARFUL OR NERVOUS MANNER.

Biomedical
People from this school of thought believe that inheritance plays a major role in the development of a disorder. 
Evaluation: supports the nature aspect in the nature vs nurture debate. Because this etiology focuses on the genetic make up and how genetics makes people more vulnerable to develop disorders.
It can be called reductionist because there are other factors through which disorders can be developed and the biological approach does not take those into account.
It is deterministic since this sot focuses on the interal functioning of our body and we cannot control that.

They support that one can unlearn phobias through conditioning.
