Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) is a disorder characterized by feelings of stress, tension, worry and apprehension. To qualify for disability benefits based on anxiety, your condition must be more than general worrying over specific events. Your condition must be so severe and overwhelming that it affects your activities of daily living and prevents you from working.
Symptoms associated with anxiety often include:
- Restlessness
- Fatigue
- Difficulty concentrating
- Irritability or explosive anger
- Muscle tension
- Sleep disturbances
- Personality changes, such as becoming less social
