About Generalised Anxiety Disorder in Kolkata
Generalised Anxiety Disorder is a chronic mental health condition characterized by excessive, persistent worry about everyday events and situations that is disproportionate to the actual likelihood or impact of those events. Unlike normal anxiety triggered by specific stressors, this worry is pervasive, difficult to control, and persists for at least six months, often accompanied by physical symptoms of tension. It can significantly interfere with daily functioning, relationships, and work performance if left untreated. The condition often coexists with other anxiety disorders or depression.
