So my counselor recently diagnosed me with GAD. She told me what it was but didn't get into full detail with it but she said it can be treated with talk therapy and medication. I've been diagnosed with anxiety disorder by my primary doctor before. My anxiety has been pretty high and I feel like absolute crap. But I feel like its trying to get better on its own. I've delt with anxiety all my life. But the current anxiety is ridiculous. I can't sleep because of it and getting racing thoughts. I know GAD can stay there but will the symptoms go away on its own eventually? I'm also having issues with PTSD so I'm having talk therapy with that. My counselor says she has GAD too. But I don't know how to cope with this. I got stress so it's been bugging me from the worrying. If my pdoc diagnosed me with anxiety disorder before is it highly possible I've had GAD and delt with it all my life? How do you cope with it? I tend to be a worry wort. Thanks.
