By JOYCE HALLBAUER
Battalion Reporter
Freshmen often encounter
stressful situations as they adjust
to life at Texas A&M University.
But freshmen aren’t alone —
other students also suffer from
anxiety.
Dr. Claude B. Goswick Jr., di
rector of the A. P. Beutel Health
Center, said a student’s stress or
anxiety can be caused by a variety
of problems involving school,
work, finances, new surroundings
or personal relationships.
“This is the age of anxiety, ” he

said. Professional help is needed
when symptoms of stress prevent
a person from functioning at
school or work or “when the emo
tions are controlling the individual
instead of the individual controll
ing the emotions,” he said.
“What might be perceived as
stressful to one person may not be
to another,” Goswick said. “Stress
is an irrational fear or irrational
interpretation of the facts. ”
High strung, nervous, unstable
or sensitive people are more likely
to develop anxiety symptoms, he
said.
“Vague symptoms of weakness,
fatigue, headaches and ulcers are
common,” he said.
At the health center, students
with such symptoms are seen by
physicians who determine
whether the cause is physical ill
ness or anxiety. When stress is in
volved, it is better to treat the
cause rather than the symptom,
he said.
Goswick said.
Learning to cope with stress
and learning how to relax are often
the best treatments for anxiety.
Medications, such as tranquiliz
ers, anti-depressants and seda
tives are prescribed because
“medications can help people to
help themselves relax,” he said.
More students complain of anxi
ety symptoms at the beginning
and end of the semester because of
added school-related pressures,
In addition, the University’s
Personal Counseling Service
helps students learn to deal with
stress by offering professional
counseling, therapy and a tape
program on learning how to relax.
