Compared to disorders like social anxiety disorder and phobias, GAD may be experienced for seemingly no reason at all.<\/p>\n<p>People suffering from GAD may experience anywhere from mild to severe anxiety, either occasionally or on a daily basis. GAD is fairly manageable when the anxiety is mild to moderate, but may hinder those with severe anxiety.<\/p>\n<p>Like most anxiety disorders, GAD can create a worsening cycle of negative thoughts. The more an individual worries about their anxiety, or avoids an activity, the more they allow their anxiety to spread and control them.<\/p>\n<p>General Anxiety Disorder is diagnosed when a person finds their anxiety difficult to control on most days for at least 6 months, and when at least 3 symptoms are present.<\/p>\n<p><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"general anxiety disorder symptoms\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"general anxiety disorder symptoms\" data-lazy-loaded=\"1\" data-src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"general anxiety disorder symptoms\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg?is-pending-load=1\" srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"general anxiety disorder symptoms\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg?is-pending-load=1\" data-srcset=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" data-src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" lazyload\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"general anxiety disorder symptoms\"><\/noscript><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP\/\/\/yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7\" alt=\"general anxiety disorder symptoms\" data-src=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/08\/anxious2-1024x683.jpg\" class=\" lazyload\"><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\" id=\"t-1619941261251\"><strong>Symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder<\/strong><\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li>Nervousness or irritability<\/li>\n<li>Sense of impending doom<\/li>\n<li>The feeling that something \u201c\u2018bad\u201d is going to happen<\/li>\n<li>Increased pulse rate or irregular heartbeat<\/li>\n<li>Irregular breathing or hyperventilation<\/li>\n<li>Shaking or trembling<\/li>\n<li>Difficulty concentrating or feeling \u201coff\u201d<\/li>\n<li>Insomnia<\/li>\n<li>Gastrointestinal issues<\/li>\n<li>Sweating<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Experiencing these symptoms in the absence of any anxiety-inducing stimulus may implicate General Anxiety Disorder.

While they may be necessary in severe cases, oftentimes medicating is just \u201cputting a bandaid on a leaky pipe.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A better solution to GAD may be to take a closer look at the <a href=\"https:\/\/dontpanicdothis.com\/anxiety-prevention\/\" style=\"outline: none;\">possible root causes<\/a>. &nbsp;Your psychiatrist, nutritionist, and endocrinologist are all great people to talk to about this.<\/p>\n<p>Does Generalized Anxiety Disorder run in your family?
