Question
Asked by TheBlessed55
Jennifer is a 25-year-old female who has the complaint of worrying excessively, feeling restless, difficulty concentrating and feeling fatigued for the last 6 months. She is under considerable stress trying to juggle work, taking college classes, and raising her 2 young children. After running some lab tests including a TSH (which were all normal), you diagnose her with generalized anxiety disorder. What pharmacological and non-pharmacological interventions could you recommend to help treat her anxiety? Are there any medications that you would avoid for this patient? Are there any tools that can help you screen your patients for anxiety in case they don’t feel comfortable admitting to you that they are anxious? How would you follow up with this patient
