On this episode, we evaluate current guidelines and evidence-based treatment strategies for managing GAD. We define generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) and describe its clinical presentations, diagnostic criteria, and underlying pathophysiology. We also compare and contrast the efficacy, safety profiles, and appropriate use of anxiolytic medications, cognitive behavioral therapy, and lifestyle modifications in treating GAD.

The Male Room with Dr. Jesse Mills
As Director of The Men’s Clinic at UCLA, Dr. Jesse Mills has spent his career helping men understand their bodies, their hormones, and their health. Now he’s bringing that expertise to The Male Room — a podcast where data-driven medicine meets common sense. Each episode separates fact from hype, science from snake oil, and gives men the tools to live longer, stronger, and happier lives. With candor, humor, and real-world experience from the exam room and the operating room, Dr. Mills breaks down the latest health headlines, dissects trends, and explains what actually works — and what doesn’t. Smart, straightforward, and entertaining, The Male Room is the show that helps men take charge of their health without the jargon.
