| Annotation | Generalised anxiety disorder is increasingly recognised as an important treatable clinical disorder. It has an overall prevalence of about 2-5%, and twice as many women as men have this condition. This disorder can present with a variety of symptoms and some people present with mainly physical symptoms. Symptoms can be treated pharmacologically, but cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT) has an important role. (KJ/RH). |
