Cevap

Generalized Anxiety Disorder matches excessive worry lasting 6 months; Panic Disorder matches recurrent unexpected episodes of intense fear; Social Anxiety Disorder matches fear of negative evaluation; Specific Phobia matches fear of a discrete object or situation.
Each anxiety disorder is defined by its primary focus of fear or anxiety. Generalized Anxiety Disorder involves broad, free-floating worry. Panic disorder is characterized by unexpected panic attacks and the fear of having another one. Social Anxiety Disorder specifically involves the fear of negative evaluation by others. Specific phobia involves fear isolated to a specific trigger.
