Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hello,
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.

The main reason behind unknown fear is generalized anxiety disorder. It is chronic illness present with several psychological and physical (somatic) symptoms.

As you mentioned she has overcome many psychological problems, which means she is responding to current treatment but partially. In such cases current medicines doses should be increased under psychiatrist supervision. Apart from that non pharmacological treatment like cognitive behavior therapy can be added with current treatment to augment treatment response.

You can provide more information regarding other associated symptoms with this problem to help you better.

Wish you good health and all the best.
