Extractions: Everyone experiences anxiety as a normal reaction to threatening, dangerous, uncertain, or important situations. Psychiatric medicine classifies anxiety as normal or pathological. Normal anxiety can enhance some peoples function, motivation, and productivity, such as the person who works well under pressure. People with generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) experience pathological anxiety, which is excessive, chronic, and typically interferes with their ability to function in normal daily activities. Generalized or "free-floating" anxiety is distinguished from phobia because it is not triggered by a specific object or situation.

Please check the synonyms listing to find the alternate name(s) and disorder subdivision(s) covered by this report. Information on the following diseases can be found in the Related Disorders section of this report: Brain Tumors are abnormal growths in the brain that can be either cancerous (malignant) of noncancerous (benign). The effects on the brain of malignant and benign brain tumors are very similar and can cause the same types of problems depending upon the type of tumor and where it is located in the brain. Brain Tumors are characterized by symptoms that can often be confused with other disorders. Chronic headaches, behavior and thought changes, convulsions, vomiting and swelling of the eyes (papilledema) are a few of the common symptoms. Other neurological signs that may indicate the existence of a tumor include difficulties or changes in language, ataxia (unsteady walking), sensory impairment and weakness. Brain tumors produce generalized symptoms because they cause swelling and compression in specific areas of the brain. Diagnosis is usually made by a neurologist using specific diagnostic imaging tests such as CT (Computed Tomographic scans) or MRI (Magnetic Resonance Imaging scans) of the patient's brain.
