Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a real illness, called an anxiety disorder . It's not just simply worrying, and it can be treated to help a person have a healthy and full life. From time to time, we all have worries about our health, family, money, and work. But when a person has GAD, they worry all the time, even when nothing is wrong. A person with GAD always expects the worst will happen, can't relax, and feels tense most of the time. Aches and pains, plus feeling tired a lot, can also happen with GAD. Sometimes, though, the source of the worry is hard to pinpoint. Just the thought of getting through the day causes anxiety. It's important to know that when a person has this illness, it's not her or his fault. And, it's not something a person can just "snap out of." No one knows for sure what causes GAD. Most often GAD begins in childhood, but can start in an adult as well. More women than men have this illness. And, GAD may run in families. What are the symptoms of GAD?

46. Anxiety Disorders to a Threat. An anxiety disorder, however, is an excessive or inappropriate arousedstate characterized by feelings of apprehension, uncertainty, or fear. http://www.reutershealth.com/wellconnected/doc28.html

Anxiety Disorders December 2001 WHAT ARE ANXIETY DISORDERS? Fear and stress reactions are essential for human survival. They enable people to pursue important goals and to respond appropriately to danger. In a healthy individual, the stress response (fight, fright, or flight) is provoked by a genuine threat or challenge and is used as a spur for appropriate action. [ See Box The Brain's Response to a Threat An anxiety disorder, however, is an excessive or inappropriate aroused state characterized by feelings of apprehension, uncertainty, or fear. The word is derived from the Latin, angere , which means to choke or strangle. The anxiety response is often not attributable to a real threat; nevertheless it can still paralyze the individual into inaction or withdrawal. An anxiety disorder also persists, while a healthy response to a threat resolves once the threat is removed. Anxiety disorders have been classified according to the severity and duration of their symptoms and specific behavioral characteristics. Categories include: Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD), which is long-lasting and low-grade.

47. Smoking May Lead To Anxiety Disorders In Adolescents And Young Adults Recent research shows that tobacco products may cause anxiety, panic attacks and fear of leaving home. http://www.nida.nih.gov/NIDA_Notes/NNVol16N1/Smoking.html

Research Findings Volume 16, Number 1 (March, 2001) Smoking May Lead to Anxiety Disorders in Adolescents and Young Adults Using a wealth of data obtained through a 25-year longitudinal study, NIDA-funded researcher Dr. Judith Brook of the Mount Sinai School of Medicine in New York, Dr. Patricia Cohen of Columbia University in New York, and their colleagues have documented adverse effects of smoking in several critical areas of functioning during young adulthood. Most recently, the team has reported a connection between tobacco use by adolescents and young adults and the likelihood that they will develop agoraphobia (fear of leaving home or of the outdoors), generalized anxiety disorder, or panic disorder. Analyzing data from their Children in the Community study, funded by NIDA and the National Institute of Mental Health, the researchers were able to separate the effects of smoking from the effects of age, gender, childhood temperament, alcohol and other drug abuse, and depression among the adolescents, as well as parents' smoking, education, and behavioral and/or mental health problems. The researchers interviewed 688 youths and their mothers in 1983, between 1985 and 1986, and again between 1991 and 1993. A total of 69 of the youths smoked heavily - at least 20 cigarettes every day - and experienced an anxiety disorder during adolescence, early adulthood, or both. Of these 69 youths, 29 (42 percent) began smoking before they were diagnosed with an anxiety disorder. The remaining 40 youths were split between those who were diagnosed with anxiety disorders before they reported heavy smoking (13, or 19 percent) and those who reported smoking and were diagnosed with anxiety disorders at the same interview session (27, or 39 percent).
