What does it feel like to have generalized anxiety (gad)?

I personally have anxiety, although I don't know much about it in terms of professional opinions or whatever, but for me it's usually just fear or nervousness where it really doesn't belong. It really varies in severity, sometimes it's just a bit of unease and other times it's like supreme, holy **** type fear. I don't know if there is a specific set of things that brings it on, but I usually get attacks, i guess, because of anything from a fight with my boyfriend to some spontaneous decision that I'm about to die for no apparent reason... Symptoms, I guess would have to be just what I said, totally irrational and random fear or nervousness. Also, I've heard self diagnosis can be a warning sign, which is ironic because I diagnosed myself with GAD before it actually got confirmed :p Of course, it's probably different for everyone. I bet you could find a discussion forum for it, ask around there. Hope this was helpful and I didn't just rant an entire paragraph of uselessness
