Agitation refers to a state of heightened
restlessness, irritability, and emotional distress, often accompanied by
increased physical activity or pacing. Individuals experiencing agitation may
feel on edge, tense, or unable to relax, with a sense of inner turmoil or
unease. This state can manifest in various behaviors, such as fidgeting,
pacing, hand-wringing, or outbursts of anger or frustration. Agitation can
result from a wide range of factors, including underlying mental health
conditions such as anxiety, depression, bipolar disorder, or dementia, as well
as medical conditions, medication side effects, substance withdrawal, or
situational stressors. Managing agitation may involve identifying and
addressing underlying causes, creating a calming environment, practicing
relaxation techniques such as deep breathing or mindfulness, and seeking
support from healthcare professionals or therapists to develop coping
strategies and interventions tailored to individual needs. In severe cases,
medication may be prescribed to help alleviate symptoms and promote stability.
