Many anxiety disorders are accompanied by substance abuse, eating disorders, and depression.
Many people experience more than one anxiety disorder at one time.
Persons with generalized anxiety disorder often worry excessively about health, money, family, or work, and continually anticipate disaster. Although GAD may be accompanied by depression, substance abuse, or another anxiety disorder, impairment is usually mild. People with this disorder usually realize that their anxiety is more intense than the situation warrants, but cannot rid themselves of these irrational concerns. However, each individual may experience symptoms differently. Always consult your physician for a diagnosis.
