News of Generalized Anxiety Disorder Forum

I am trying to finish my 4.5 years with my psychiatrist. After the sudden loss of my younger brother and death of my father i became very anxious and was treated for GAD. I was abused as a young child and that was also part of the treatment. I am ready to move on but i have a hard time letting go. I only see my psychiatrist once a month now to make the transition ...

First, I just want to say hello. I am new to this forum.

Now the police are involved and all meds were removed from the house. What are the symtoms of withdrawl.

Paranoia is a Psychological disorder,with predefined symptoms,check any Psychiatry book on the topic.Anxiety is a normal reaction to everyday problems,without the repetion that paranoid patients have.Therefore anxiety is here today and gone when the problem has gone through dealing with it ,by confronting it.
