GAD: Gad requires excessive worry on a daily basis for six months accompanied by other symptoms including insomnia, impaired concentration, irritability, feeling tense and finding it difficult to relax. These symptoms must cause either significant distress, impaired function or both.

Hypochondriasis: Hypochondriasis is a psychiatric condition. If a hypochondriac person experiences a sign or symptom, they tend to think of having a serious medical condition by exaggerating a simple symptom and linking it to something serious. They end up seeing x specialists and still do not feel satisfied, despite negative findings. This is not gad. Please see your pcp.
