Disability: Any condition could be or not a disability. Disability means that you cannot perform adequately in a working environment. There are multiple working choices and schedules to accommodate persons with anxiety disorders. Vocational rehabilitation and recovery programs are invested in finding a more appropriate and productive work environment when you have anxiety issues. Make a consult with them asap.

Major depression: With gad can be debilitating; however, with a combination of psychotherapy and medication hopefully you can get back to living a more productive life. Contact a rehab program, psychiatrist and psychologist to get back on track.
