While feeling anxious at times is normal, when you experience ongoing anxiety that gets in the way of your daily routine, you may have generalized anxiety disorder.

- Inability to let go of worries, small or large

- Trouble making decisions and handling uncertainty
- Inability to rest or feel relaxed
- Fatigue
- Irritability
- Headaches
