Causes of Generalised Anxiety Disorder
Although great advances have been made in the treatment
of generalised anxiety disorder, the cause of the
disorder is not known. Generalised anxiety disorder
may be inherited or influenced by family background.
For example, people who grew up with anxious or
jittery role models (parents, siblings, teachers,
grandparents) may have learned to see the world
as an uncontrollable and dangerous place.
