Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Abstract

One of the most widely recognized and prevalent anxiety disorders nowadays is generalized anxiety disorder (GAD). GAD is a psychological disorder characterized by fear, concern, and a persistent sense of becoming overwhelmed. It is distinguished by intense, prolonged, and unreasonable concern about little things. Generalized anxiety is also defined as uneasiness and persistent illogical concern over prospective risks to the individual or their loved ones. This disorder is significantly linked with other conditions such as depression. Many individuals can calm oneself and lessen or regulate their anxiety using a number of coping mechanisms. Those with GAD, on the other hand, have a difficult time locating relaxation, serenity, and time away from their anxieties.
