Introduction

Do you often find yourself worrying excessively about everyday events, even when there is no apparent reason for concern? Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a persistent and excessive worry about various aspects of life, such as health, work, relationships, or finances. This overwhelming anxiety can interfere with daily life and lead to emotional and physical distress. At Samvedana Psychiatry Centre, we provide expert care and personalized treatment plans to help individuals manage and overcome GAD effectively.

Understanding Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)

GAD is more than just feeling anxious occasionally. It is a chronic condition where individuals experience uncontrollable worry and fear for six months or longer. This worry is often disproportionate to the actual situation and can be difficult to manage without professional help.

Signs & Symptoms of GAD

• Persistent and excessive worry about various life situations
• Restlessness or feeling constantly on edge
• Difficulty concentrating or mind going blank
• Muscle tension and frequent headaches
• Trouble sleeping, including insomnia or restless sleep
• Fatigue and feeling easily overwhelmed
• Irritability and difficulty controlling emotions
• Increased heart rate, sweating, and shortness of breath

Health Consequences of Untreated GAD

If left untreated, GAD can take a significant toll on overall well-being, leading to:

• Physical Health Issues: Increased risk of heart disease, high blood pressure, and digestive problems.
• Emotional & Mental Health Struggles: Higher likelihood of developing depression, panic disorders, or substance abuse.
