Summary:

For the last several months, Mrs. Resnick has been experiencing some of the physical symptoms of panic and anxiety. She has problems falling asleep. At work she cannot focus due to her mind constantly drifting to various concerns about her husband and children. Unfortunately, as her concerns mount, the concerns are making her life increasingly difficult to manage. This training title shows the major symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Symptoms of Generalized Anxiety Disorder may include: excessive anxiety and worry (apprehensive expectation), finding it difficult to control the worry, restlessness or feeling keyed up or on edge, being easily fatigued, difficulty concentrating or mind going blank, irritability, muscle tension, sleep disturbance (difficulty falling or staying asleep, or restless unsatisfying sleep). The anxiety, worry, or physical symptoms cause clinically significant distress or impairment in social, occupational, or other important areas of functioning. The focus of the anxiety and worry is not confined to features of an Axis I disorder, e.g., The anxiety or worry is not better explained by another mental disorder: such as anxiety or worry about having panic attacks in Panic Disorder, negative evaluation in social anxiety disorder (Social phobia), contamination or other obsessions in obsessive-compulsive disorder, separation from attachment figures in separation anxiety disorder, reminders of traumatic events in posttraumatic stress disorder, gaining weight in anorexia nervosa, physical complaints in somatic symptom disorder, perceived appearance flaws in body dysmorphic disorder, having a serious illness in illness anxiety disorder, or the content of delusional beliefs in schizophrenia or delusional disorder.
