Generalized Anxiety disorder (GAD): Disease Understanding

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) Overview

Generalized anxiety disorder involves persistent and excessive worry that interferes with daily activities. This ongoing worry and tension may be accompanied by physical symptoms, such as restlessness, feeling on edge or easily fatigued, difficulty concentrating, muscle tension, or problems sleeping. Often the worries focus on everyday things such as job responsibilities, family health, or minor matters such as chores, car repairs, or appointments.

GAD can go undiagnosed because of a focus on physical symptoms and the stigma of mental illness. However, people with GAD can have meaningful lives and can function socially as well, when the anxiety level is mild-to-moderate or when they are taking some treatment.

The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, Fifth Edition (DSM-V) lists separation anxiety, selective mutism, specific phobia, social anxiety disorder (also called social phobia), panic disorder, agoraphobia, generalized anxiety, substance abuse/medication-induced anxiety, and an anxiety disorder caused by another medical condition.

The criteria of GAD in DSM-V include the characteristics such as feeling restless, keyed up, or on edge, fatiguing easily, difficulty concentrating or the mind going blank, irritability, increased muscle tension, difficulty falling asleep, staying asleep, or restlessness. Excessive worry and anxiety occur most of the time for at least 6 months, with at least three of the core symptoms in adults and one sign in the case of children.

According to the Anxiety and Depression Association of America (ADAA), GAD affects 6.8 million adults, or 3.1% of the US population in any given year. Women are twice as likely to be affected. Although the exact cause of GAD is unknown, there is evidence that biological factors, family background, and life experiences, particularly stressful ones, play a role.
