Abstract

How can clinicians diagnosis generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) earlier and treat it more effectively? The most successful treatment is often determined through the remission of psychic and somatic symptoms, an increase in functional capacity at work and in relationships, and how the patient handles their daily responsibilities. This monograph attempts to:

—Define GAD

—Explore psychotherapeutic and pharmacologic treatment modalities

—Identify comorbidities associated with GAD

—Understand the importance of dual uptake mechanisms in gaining remission
