What is "generalized anxiety disorder"?
Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a mental health condition characterized by excessive and constant worry about everyday situations. Individuals with GAD often find it difficult to control their worries, which can interfere with daily activities and lead to physical symptoms such as restlessness, fatigue, muscle tension, and difficulty concentrating. GAD is different from normal feelings of nervousness or worry because it is excessive, constant, and difficult to control. Treatment for GAD typically involves therapy, medication, and lifestyle changes to help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
