“Normal Anxiety” Versus Generalised Anxiety Disorder

The difference between “normal” worrying and generalized anxiety disorder is that the worrying involved in GAD is excessive, intrusive, persistent and debilitating. With normal anxiety:

1.Your worrying doesn’t get in the way of your daily activities and responsibilities.

2. You’re able to control your worrying.

3. Your worries, while unpleasant, don’t cause significant distress.

4. Your worries are limited to a specific, small number of realistic concerns.

5. Your bouts of worrying last for only a short time period.

However, with Generalised Anxiety Disorder

1. Your worrying significantly disrupts your job, activities, or social life.

2. Your worrying is uncontrollable.

3. Your worries are extremely upsetting and stressful.

4. You worry about all sorts of things, and tend to expect the worst.

5. You’ve been worrying almost every day for at least six months. Most people with GAD experience a combination of emotional, behavioral, and physical symptoms.

Emotional symptoms

• Constant worries running through your head

• Feeling like your anxiety is uncontrollable

• Intrusive thoughts about things that make you anxious; you try to avoid thinking about them, but you can’t

• An inability to tolerate uncertainty

• A pervasive feeling of apprehension or dread

Behavioral symptoms

• Inability to relax, enjoy quiet time, or be by yourself

• Difficulty concentrating or focusing on things

• Putting things off because you feel overwhelmed

• Avoiding situations that make you anxious

Physical symptoms

• Feeling tense; having muscle tightness or body aches

• Having trouble falling asleep or staying asleep because your mind won’t quit

• Feeling edgy, restless, or jumpy

• Stomach problems, nausea, diarrhea.

Note: If you’ve struggled with anxiety and fears your whole life, it’s likely that your anxiety symptoms are due to GAD; if your anxiety symptoms are relatively new, this could be a sign of a different problem.

PLEASE pay attention to the physical and behavioral symptoms of GAD! I tried for years to tell myself that I just had “normal anxiety” because I was so high functioning, but was simultaneously not putting together that my inability to sleep, worsening stomach probs, etc were actually symptoms of GAD.

“Worrying all the time” is not the only presentation of GAD. You can mentally block worry in your mind while simultaneously displacing it in other ways. It’s important to not overact to normal anxiety and falsely diagnose yourself, but also don’t fool yourself into thinking you don’t have GAD just because you may be high functioning or “don’t worry all the time”. Don’t let people shame you into thinking you don’t have GAD because of this either.

That weight you’ve placed upon your shoulders is going to crush you. Take it off. You don’t need to be perfect. You don’t need to have it all together. You don’t need to please everyone. You don’t need to be anything or anyone other that who you are. You are more than good enough. Who you are is beautiful. Who you are is loved. Who you are is special is more ways than one. Place that heavy burden on the ground. Throw it into the sea. Expel it from your being. You will be lighter in mind, body, and soul. Live in that freedom of the true you.

Did good notes 4 fix their sync issues? I want to buy but the reviews aren't good as notability. Which one is better?

Are you referring to syncing between a computer and the iPad? If so, I unfortunately can’t help there because I only have the iPad version. I use both Notability and GoodNotes, but for different purposes. I like Notability for keeping class PowerPoints, while I use GoodNotes for handwritten and drawn notes. I have tried drawing/writing in Notability, and I just do not like it as much as I do in GoodNotes. I have not tried using GoodNotes to house my PowerPoints yet, and I probably won’t just because I’ve been using Notability for so long. I hope this helps!
