Irritability / Anxiety


Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is characterized by excessive, unrealistic worry that lasts six months or more; the anxiety may focus on issues such as health, money, or career. In addition to chronic worry, GAD symptoms include trembling, muscular aches, insomnia, abdominal upsets, dizziness, and irritability.

In the United States, GAD affects approximately 8 million adults every year, with women outnumbering men two to one. The disorder comes on gradually and can begin across the life cycle, though the risk is highest between childhood and middle age.

GAD is much more than the normal anxiety people experience day to day. It can lead to exaggerated tension and worry, even though there is little or nothing to provoke it. People with GAD can't seem to shake their concerns, even though they usually realize that their anxiety is more intense than the situation warrants. Their worries are accompanied by physical symptoms, especially fatigue, headaches, muscle tension, muscle aches, difficulty swallowing, trembling, twitching, irritability, sweating, and hot flashes. People with GAD may feel lightheaded or out of breath. They also may feel nauseated or have to go to the bathroom frequently.

Individuals with GAD seem unable to relax, and they may startle more easily than other people. They tend to have difficulty concentrating, too. Often, they have trouble falling or staying asleep.
