View clinical trials related to Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
Filter by:Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is one of the most prevalent mental disorders in adults, marked by excessive and uncontrollable worry about various events or activities. It is accompanied by symptoms such as restlessness, irritability, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, problems with sleep, and somatic symptoms. In addition, a critical and up-to-date comparison of different treatments for GAD is crucial due to their high costs and unsatisfactory outcomes. EEG neurofeedback training has not reached the same level of evidence as more extensively validated non-pharmacological treatments, such as cognitive behavioral therapy.This study aimed to compare the efficacy of two protocols: one targeting alpha-theta amplitude increase and the other concentrating on SMR.
The goal of this observational study is to compare socio-demographic and clinical features in patients affected by Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) and by Panic Disorder (PD). The main questions it aims to answer are: - which socio-demographic/clinical markers are associated to GAD or PD diagnosis? - which factors are associated with a longer duration of untreated illness (DUI) in GAD and in PD? Participants will signed a written informed consent and socio-demographic/clinical variables will be retrospectively collected. Researchers will compare GAD and PD groups in terms of socio-demographic and clinical features, including DUI, to better characterize the two disorders and to investigate factors associated to a longer DUI.
The goal of this clinical is to pilot test an internet delivered cognitive behavior therapy (ICBT) based on intolerance of uncertainty (one of several existing specific cognitive models for how worry works) in treating generalised anxiety disorder (GAD). The main aims is to: - Test the preliminary effect of the intervention in lowering symptoms of GAD as measured by the self report scale GAD-7 - Test procedures for recruitment, assessment, treatment and follow up - Test the acceptability of the intervention as measured by the Client Satisfaction questionnaire-8, dropout and adverse events Participants will apply for treatment in an online system, be assessed via video by a licensed clinical psychologist and then receive a 10 week long ICBT intervention based on the intolerance of uncertainty model. This is a pilot study for an upcoming randomized controlled trial.
This study will examine the effectiveness of digital CBT versus psychoeducation in improving anxiety for those with Generalized Anxiety Disorder.
This study compares the effectiveness of two levels of therapist support for an internet-based, parent-led cognitive behavioral therapy for youth with anxiety and ASD.
The investigators will conduct a retrospective cohort analysis of a consumer trial conducted by Rae Wellness. The trial took place between October 15, 2020 and December 30, 2020 and involved 1350 U.S. women who used in-home use tests (IHUT) of various Cannabidiol (CBD) products. Participants were randomized to one of 9 groups: 8 groups received one of 8 different CBD products in the mail, and one group served as the control and did not consume any CBD product. The CBD products varied by method of delivery, concentration of Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and dosage of CBD. Participants were asked to use the product once daily for 60 day and to complete health questionnaires at baseline, 30 days and 60 days.
This study is a randomized controlled trial comparing a smartphone-delivered savoring intervention (SkillJoy) for Generalized Anxiety Disorder to an active treatment control.
Generalized anxiety disorder affects about 6.8 million adults in the United States, therefore its treatment is of major public health interest. Cannabidiol (CBD) has shown promise as an effective treatment for anxiety-related symptoms while lacking the severity of adverse effects seen with other medications. Given the wide availability of products containing CBD on the market today, from tinctures to coffee additives, and the undetermined potential for drug-to-drug interactions, medical supervision of CBD intake and formulation-specific clinical research is necessary. Therefore this study aimed to observe the effects of a specific hemp-derived full spectrum CBD formula on anxiety-related symptoms in a group of volunteers. The investigators will examine the self-reported anxiety symptoms in relation to use of a specific CBD formulation (25mg solvent-free full spectrum CBD capsules) in a cohort of adults diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder. This open-label, cohort study will be conducted at six clinic sites in the United States (including Puerto Rico) from June 2020 through October 2020. The six physicians recruited to participate in the study were each actively prescribing CBD in their practices and were actively caring for patients with anxiety symptoms. Anxiety levels will be measured in enrolled participants diagnosed with generalized anxiety disorder each week for a period of eight weeks using the Generalized Anxiety Disorder 7-Item Scale (GAD7). Participants will also be instructed to take a daily 25mg capsule of CBD. The investigators hypothesize that this formula, when carefully developed and administered by a healthcare professional, will significantly reduce anxiety symptoms.
Participants with Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) or Generalized Anxiety Disorder (GAD) will use a prescribed digital therapeutic for 8-10 weeks, and will complete depression and anxiety measures during this time. After the treatment period, participants will be followed monthly for 12 months.
Anxiety and obsessive-compulsive disorders are the most common mental health disorders in childhood and adolescence. A parenting intervention for youth with anxiety, called Supportive Parenting of Anxious Childhood Emotions ("SPACE"), has been recently developed to help target anxiety in children. In this intervention, therapists meet individually with parents to help them reduce anxiety behaviors in their children and support adaptive behaviors in their children. The purpose for the proposed study is to demonstrate the treatment efficacy of SPACE compared to a low-contact, therapist-supported bibliotherapy version of this intervention.
