It is an excessive worry about things that are unlikely to happen, or, if they were to happen, it would be much more unmanageable than worriers think. Examples include worrying about the health of one’s family, worrying about not getting everything done on time at work or home, and worrying about not being good enough as a parent, child, or significant other.
Worry is almost always about events that could happen in the future, and therefore, it is characterized by “What if” types of statements.
Such worries can continue throughout the day, in some cases every day, disrupting social activities, family, work or school.
Physical symptoms of GAD include, but are not limited to the following:
Our 10-week Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) group will teach you to correct misconceptions of anxiety and worry. Relaxation is included to directly target the physiological arousal and tension that are a core component of GAD.
Repeated exposure, with increasing control over the worry process, focusing on replacing cognitive avoidance tendencies with one of cognitive modifications.
Exposure to situations that are being avoided or put off and response prevention of any “safety behaviors” are included.
