Anxiety

Occasional anxiety is a normal part of life. However, people with generalized anxiety disorder worry extremely or more frequently about these and many other things, even when there is no reason to worry. Usually, this disorder involves a persistent feeling of anxiety or dread that interferes with the way you live your life. It is not the same as worrying occasionally about things or feeling anxious due to stressful life events. People who have this disorder frequently feel anxious for months and even years.
