Anxiety disorders have become a major public health problem in urban communities. To address this issue, this study proposes the hypothesis that by combining community public services and duloxetine treatment, the symptoms of residents diagnosed with anxiety disorder can be improved. This study aims to explore a novel intervention that combines community public services with duloxetine therapy. Community public services can provide a range of support and resources, including psychological counseling, social support, and life skills training. Duloxetine, a commonly used anti-anxiety drug, is widely used in the treatment of anxiety disorders.

This non-randomized control study involved urban residents diagnosed with anxiety disorders. We used the Stanford Acute Stress Response Questionnaire (SASRQ) and the 3-min Confusion Assessment Scale (3D-CAM) as our primary assessment tools. Data were collected and statistically analyzed using SPSS23.0 software.

Following targeted community interventions supplemented with Duloxetine treatment, the affected residents exhibited a significant decrease in SASRQ and 3D-CAM scores, representing a reduction in anxiety symptoms. Moreover, improved community involvement and increased utilization of public services were noted post-intervention.

The application of urban community public services combined with Duloxetine appears to effectively alleviate anxiety symptoms among city residents. It not only enhances mental well-being but also bolsters community cohesion and public service utilization. Despite the promising results showcasing this concerted approach’s potential, more extensive research is crucial to unequivocally substantiate and refine this intervention strategy.
