(' Identify the biological and social factors or deterinants (including social structure) which ight have
contributed to Anna being sub-ect to anxiety !robles' (A!!rox' (** words)

her eotional difficulties in young adulthood" (A!!rox' (** words)
/' What are soe of the a-or interactions between Anna.s eotions and her choices about lifestyle" (A!!rox'
(** words)
Genetic:
- Anna had a family history of mental disorders, with her parents and uncle suffering anxiety and her
sister suffering depression. herefore Anna inherited anxiety from her parents.
!iological:
-"e#eloped later than most other girls and felt immature
- !elie#ed that $ecause she was smart and fit she should $e a$le to ta%e care of herself and
therefore she didn&t see% help
- 'eemed to suffer a pho$ia of $eing social
'ocial:
- (thers girls at school de#eloped faster than Anna
- )er family ne#er discussed anxiety and all suffered from anxiety, this meant Anna learnt to $e
anxious from other family mem$ers.
Anna thought that $ecause her classmates de#eloped at a faster rate than she did, she was
immature and excluded herself $ecause she was different. 'he also felt that $ecause she was
intelligent and physically fit that she should $e a$le to ta%e care of herself and therefore a#oided
see%ing help. All of these factors caused her to not loo% for help to deal with the anxiety, thus
resulting in Anna increasing her emotional and social difficulties during young adulthood.
*n her early school life, Anna&s anxiety affected to the point that she felt sic% to the stomach and
therefore e#entually got herself excused from physical education. !ecause she felt that she was
aw%ward and uns%illed, she a#oided playing games with the other students. "ue to Anna&s anxiety
she $ecame physically sic% $efore any tennis competitions and this then affected her a$ility to
play. Anna&s wor% life also suffered from her social anxiety as it caused her to a#oid wor%ing with
others and ha#ing fre+uent sic% days. As she felt sha%y and unwell when entertaining, she and
her hus$and gradually a#oided socialising altogether.
