Abstract Generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) is a condition in which a person has excessive, persistent worry, fear and anticipation. It affects and interrupts daily activities as well as the quality of life. Case Summary: A 30-year-old lady, known case of GAD presented at NEIAH Homoeopathic OPD with the complaint of breathlessness, pain in abdomen and symptoms of generalized anxiety disorder (GAD) with tobacco addiction. After accessing DSM 5, she was again diagnosed with GAD. A detailed case taking was done as per homoeopathic principles and Arsenicum Album was prescribed based on the totality of symptoms along with homoeopathic psychiatric care and showed significant improvement in her anxiety and tobacco dependence over a year. Monthly GAD-7 score was assessed to understand the effect of homoeopathic management to the case. The improvement in the clinical symptoms and reduction in GAD-7 score shows the effectiveness of homoeopathic treatment in the management of GAD. The assessment of causal attribution was also carried out using the Modified Naranjo Criteria for Homeopathy (MONARCH) inventory. This case report will serve as a scope of homoeopathic management in the management of GAD.
