Bys: 王振 and 刘兰英

Integrating the wisdom of ancient TCM practices to restore tranquility to anxious minds 融汇中医古法智慧，为焦虑心灵寻回宁静之道 Anxiety disorder is one of the most common mental disorders. It is a neurosis characterized clinically by temporary or persistent emotional tension, accompanied by symptoms such as autonomic nervous system dysfunction, motor disturbances, and sleep disorders. Its etiology has not yet been fully elucidated. With its high incidence rate, high recurrence rate, high disability rate, and relatively low cure rate, anxiety disorder severely affects people's quality of life and social stability. Based on its clinical manifestations, modern Chinese medicine practitioners generally classify anxiety disorder within the TCM categories of "running piglet syndrome" (ben tun), "fear syndrome" (zheng zheng), and "fright disease" (jing bing). Using modern medical diagnostic criteria for anxiety disorder as a standard in examining ancient Chinese medical texts-through the lenses of etiology, symptoms, and treatment-allows us to understand how ancient China perceived anxiety disorders and to identify differences in descriptive approaches between ancient and modern times. This enriches both Chinese medical philology and clinical psychiatry, offering valuable reference points for the study of anxiety disorders within TCM and integrated Chinese-Western medicine. This book systematically excavates Chinese medical classics from the pre-Qin period through the Qing dynasty, providing a comprehensive and meticulous overview of disease pattern descriptions in ancient TCM that correspond to the modern psychological condition of anxiety disorder. The content covers fundamental TCM theories, Chinese materia medica, formulas, clinical specialties, and case histories. With abundant and reliable source material, the book holds significant value for both literature reference and clinical research. Through this book, readers can not only appreciate the profound depth and unique charm of TCM in addressing modern psychological disorders, but also gain valuable insights for modern clinical treatment of anxiety disorder. 焦虑症是最常见的精神障碍之一，是一种以暂时性或持续性情绪紧张为主要临床症状，并伴有自主神经功能失调、运动障碍、睡眠障碍等症状的神经症。其病因尚未完全阐明，具有高发病率、高复发率、高致残率及较低治愈率等特性，严重影响人们生活质量和社会稳定。根据焦虑症临床表现，现代医家多将其归属于中医学"奔豚""恐证""惊病"等范畴。以现代医学对焦虑症的诊断依据为标准，从病因、症状、治疗等方面研究中医古籍，可以了解中国古代对焦虑症的认识，获悉古今对焦虑症描述方式上的差异，从而丰富中医文献学和临床精神病学，对中医、中西医结合研究焦虑症都有一定借鉴价值。 本书系统挖掘了先秦至清代的中医典籍，全面而细致地梳理与焦虑症这一现代心理疾病相契合的古代中医病证名描述。内容涵盖中医基础理论、中药、方剂、临证各科、医案等。 资料翔实，具有较高的文献参考价值和临床研究价值。通过本书，读者不仅可以领略到中医在应对现代心理疾病方面的深厚底蕴与独特的魅力，还能为现代临床治疗焦虑症提供参考与借鉴。
