Understanding Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

Anxiety is a normal human response to stress, but for some, it becomes a persistent, overwhelming presence. GAD is characterized by excessive, uncontrollable worry about various aspects of life—from health and work to minor daily tasks.

When Worry Becomes Persistent

Unlike situational anxiety, GAD persists for at least six months and often feels out of proportion to the actual likelihood or impact of the feared events.

Common Symptoms of GAD

According to DSM-5 criteria, GAD often manifests through physical and cognitive symptoms.

Cognitive Overload

Difficulty concentrating, mind “going blank,” and persistent intrusive thoughts that disrupt productivity and peace of mind.

Restlessness

Feeling keyed up or on edge constantly.

Easy Fatigability

Persistent exhaustion even without physical exertion.

Physical Tension

Muscle aches, tension, and soreness often localized in the neck, shoulders, and back.

Sleep Disturbances

Difficulty falling or staying asleep, or restless, unsatisfying sleep.
