I thought so too (Doesn't everyone worry all the time?) I had been treated for depression in the past but about two years ago I knew something was wrong with me but it didn't quite feel like depression but not sure what. I had always worried alot but it got to the point it was consuming me. After much reading and reasearching I found GAD. I made an appointment with my PCP and told him I thought GAD was what I had. He asked me alot of questions and he agreed with me. He started me on lexapro and a small dose of xanax to use till the lexapro started working. I am so much better, I still worry but now I feel like it is a normal amount. I'm 42 years old and when I think back to even when I was a teen, I've been affected by this. Please do follow up with your doctor.
