I am GAD

I am General Anxiety Disorder, but my friends call me GAD. I come to visit you when you are young and stay with you over time, but I can also come from your genes. I run in families and grow with stress. I can be found in millions of adults, and I have a greater attraction to women. You can find me in the DSM under Anxiety Disorders. I am your difficulty breathing, swallowing, and focusing every minute of your life. I stay for six months or more and give you trouble coping with things. I am there when you can't relax. I am the twitch you can't get rid of. I am there when your muscles and your head aches. I am GAD.

I Salivate At The Sight Of Mittens. Is That Weird?

Sometimes I like taking personality tests, they can be fun. The Big Five Trait test was so not fun. There were so many questions and the results were so long too. I only skimmed the results and looked at my percentages for the sections which weren't even good. When I started taking the second test, I could not take it seriously..Do I like mannish children? Do I use shoe polish to excess? What is the stuff? After I answered the questions to the best of my ability, I was ready to get my results. They were scary right. I do not understand how those questions were relevant to anything at all about my personality. It was amusing to take and sweet to see my results. I liked the second test better.
