6 Tips To Treat Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Once upon a time, anxiety was critical for keeping us alive. In today's world, though, it piggybacks on the kind of chronic, low-level threats that leave many in a state of constant anxiety.
People with generalized anxiety disorder feel continually tense and anxious over things that wouldn’t normally bother a person to that extent, and treating a client with generalized anxiety disorder can feel daunting for a therapist.
In this video I'll share with you some simple steps that I find useful when helping people with GAD. I talk about how the portrayal of general 'potential threats' in the news and other media can make us feel anxious (0:52), but if you would prefer to skip to the first tip then this begins at 3:24.
