the ability to be effective at work or school. Depression is not a sign
of weakness; depression is a chemical brain disorder much like an ailment anywhere
in your body. Because your brain is an electrochemical organ, depression involves
electrical and chemical changes in the brain that are detrimental to a quality

with GAD don't characteristically avoid certain situations as a result of their
disorder. When impairment associated with GAD is mild, people with the disorder
may be able to function in social settings or on the job. If severe, however,
GAD can be very debilitating, making it difficult to carry out even the most ordinary
daily activities. GAD affects about 4 million adult Americans' and about
twice as many women as men.' The disorder comes on gradually and can begin across
the life cycle, though the risk is highest between childhood and middle age.'
It is diagnosed when someone spends at least 6 months worrying excessively about
a number of everyday problems. There is evidence that genes play a modest role
in GAD." GAD is commonly treated with medications. GAD rarely occurs alone, however;
it is usually accompanied by another anxiety disorder, depression, or substance
abuse." These other conditions must be treated along with GAD. Medical researchers
