<br>The book that tells us all about mental illnesses, the book, (or Bible, if you like), used by Doctors, Psychiatrists, Psychologists, indeed anyone who works in the mental health profession is titled 'The Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders.' It informs us that 'Generalized Anxiety Disorder means at least 6 months of excessive anxiety and worry about a variety of events and situations.' Now, that doesn't mean to say that you have to be worrying about all manner of things.<br><br>It may mean that, but on the other hand it may mean just one thing. The important figure to bear in mind is that it must be ongoing for at least 6 months. Probably the best way of looking at it is that Generalized Anxiety Disorder is the vehicle that drives you around, looking for something to worry about. If you're suffering from Generalized Anxiety Disorder, you're already wound up tightly, so your mind runs around trying to find something real or imaginary to worry about. And you may be very sure that it'll find something!<br><br>Let's try an example. It's Saturday morning and you decide to go to the Bank. You're in plenty of time. You arrive there at ten o'clock, and the Bank doesn't close until 11.30. However, there are a fair amount of people there. You join a queue that looks the shortest. Haven't we all done this? Just as you take your place at the back, the person finishes their business and leaves. Oh, that's good, you think.<br><br>Next in line is an elderly gentleman. And here the trouble really starts! To begin with, he can't find his cheque book. Finally, he finds where he put it. Then he searches for another document, but this takes a bit longer. Meanwhile, you're steaming. Not to labour the point, he messes around for so long, in your estimation, that you go storming out of the Bank. In fact, you've been in there for 7 minutes! Very shortly after you left, the old boy completed his business and the line moved smoothly.<br><br>If it hadn't been the Bank, you'd have found something else to upset you. <a href="http://coco98765.livejournal.com/12834.html">Launch X431 Scanner</a> Why not go to you car, sit down and ask yourself whether you'd have behaved like that if you hadn't been wound up tightly? If you'd been calm, you'd have felt a bit of annoyance, probably, or you may have simply had a chuckle at the poor old boy's expense. But that answers the question nicely; 'What does Generalized Anxiety Disorder mean?'<br><br>Try to isolate the reason for this Generalized Anxiety Disorder. Can you think of anything at all that may have caused you this 'wound up' feeling? It may well be your imagination playing tricks on you. Alternatively, you may have been over-working. We had a chat some time ago about this business of cell phones. Another example of wonderful slaves, terrible masters. <a href="http://josephsherman00.inube.com/blog/3658961/launch-crp129-help
