Anxiety Help - Cure for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Cure for Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD)
Psychotherapy, or talk therapy, is a key component of treatment for generalized anxiety disorder. Especially effective is cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT), which examines distortions in thinking that lead to psychological problems and can help you retrain your reactions to stress and anxiety.
Generalized anxiety disorder commonly responds to certain drugs, such as antidepressants of the family that includes Prozac and Paxil, and anti anxiety medications such as Xanax and Valium. However, medication generally is recommended only as a temporary measure to relieve symptoms at the beginning of the treatment process, with psychotherapy the key to long-term success.
See the Mayo Clinic�s article on treatment for GAD for a discussion of drug alternatives and psychotherapy, as well as Psych Central�s site on generalized anxiety disorder treatment.
