Anxiety

Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is the most common type of anxiety disorder. People with GAD get through daily tasks with anxiousness even if there is no tangible trigger to provoke a sense of worry. Constant fear of impending doom hangs over their lives and people generally react disproportionately to a comment, context, or situation.
