People with GAD must learn ways to cope with anxiety and worry. You’ll probably need some counseling to help you figure out what’s making you so tense. Also, you may need to take some medicine to help you feel less anxious. Your doctor can recommend the treatment that is right for you. Patients with GAD can get better. If you take medicine for generalized anxiety disorder, you may be able to stop taking it at some point in the future. Your doctor will tell you if it’s OK to stop taking your medicine.
