This is the feeling of being anxious about almost everything and anything! Often, people affected by GAD will feel overly worried about a wide range of things including:
- Your performance at school
- Arriving on time for appointments
- Things that are happening at school or at home
- Worrying about worrying
- Do you feel that you have been nervous most days over the past 6 months?
- Do you have problems falling asleep? Do you have bad dreams or wake up worrying?
- Do you feel that your body is very tense or uptight?
- Do you often feel that you want to shout or feel frustrated?
If you can answer “yes” to any of the above questions, you may be experiencing GAD.

Hey
About 3 months ago I had a panic attack at work, I have no idea why but the ephidirne tablets i was taking (used for weight loss) didnt help. Since that day i started feeling out of body and unusual. I got so scared that something has changed in my mind, like i could have developed bi-polar because i constantly felt down. After 2 months i plucked up the courage to go to the doctors. He told me i had GAD. At first i felt alien, until i found out 1 in 4 people have anxiety issues/disorders. I feel a lot better than i used to (not completely better but I’m getting there) and i’m slowly convincing myself I’m not crazy. The best advice i can give anyone is talk to a trusted friend or family member and to check it out with the doctor and lastly remember that your not alone :)
