The Impact of Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) may be brought on, or worsened by, stressful life events. People with GAD are often overly concerned about everyday issues, such as health, money, family, or work issues. Has just thinking about getting through the day ever produced excessive anxiety in you? Does this constant anxiety limit any of your daily activities?

Where Does Anxiety Strike?

Anxiety can strike anywhere: at home, at work, or out with your friends.

Have you ever said any of these statements?

  • "I feel anxious all the time."
  • "I am easily fatigued."
  • "I often feel completely overwhelmed."
  • "My muscles are tense."
  • "I've been having a lot of trouble sleeping lately."
  • "I have difficulty concentrating."

Fortunately there is hope. Learn steps for starting on the journey to improvement.
