I have GAD, but I have been hesitant on getting treatment for it. My doctor recommends me to try therapy and later maybe meds, but I don't think my parents/family want me to do it. I don't think they understand that it's more than just worrying, because they always say "just pray about it" or "if you truly believe in God, then he will take away your worries." Well the thing is that I do believe in God wholeheartedly and pray everyday; yet I have had problems with anxiety for 6 years. My problem is that I logically understand that it is unnecessary to worry about all the things I worry about, but I literally can't keep myself from doing so. If anyone has been in my situation before or are in my situation now, I could really use some advice on what to do.
