Therapy for Generalized Anxiety Disorder
It’s normal to occasionally worry about a relationship, financial stability, or health issues. However, people with generalized anxiety disorder are consumed by excessive worries over these issues. Even trivial matters such as going to an event or shopping for groceries, would dread them. This constant state of worry can hinder them from performing everyday tasks and in some cases, cause an adverse effect on their physical and mental health.
