Somatic symptoms in generalized anxiety disorder with and without comorbid psychiatric disorders
Abstract
The authors compared the distribution of somatic symptoms associated with generalized anxiety disorder in 28 patients with "pure" generalized anxiety disorder and 77 patients with generalized anxiety disorder plus comorbid current or lifetime psychiatric diagnoses. They found no significant differences in individual symptom endorsement between the two groups, indicating that the basic symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder are specific to the disorder itself.
