What is General Anxiety Disorder?

If you have had excessive anxiety and worry about various aspects of your life (finances, health, family, etc.) over at least the past six months, then you may have Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD). Physical symptoms may include restlessness, becoming easily fatigued, poor concentration, irritability, muscle tension, and sleep disturbance. The anxiety and worry are clearly far out of proportion to the importance of the situation.
