I know this is the crux of the disorder but seriously, it sucks. I completely realize that having GAD means I feel stressed for no reason, yet my brain keeps thinking "if we feel stressed right now, something MUST be causing it!!!" and then I assign it to a random concrete thing in my life. So even though that thing isn't actually a cause for stress, I convince myself it is, and it becomes one. School, work, hobbies, etc. everything is stressful because some part of my brain thinks there must be a "real" reason why I feel worried, that it can't only be a chemical imbalance in my brain. I'm causing all my own problems. And I'm tired of it!!!!!!!
