health Do You Overly Worry?

[PoisonClaw 8,153]

Not a day goes by that I'm not worrying about something, big or small. I worry if I've locked the doors after leaving the house, even after wasting ten minutes checking. i worry about leaving the stove on and burning down the house. I worry that something I've said/written will be taken the wrong way and end up offending someone, making them hate me. I worry about finding a job, I worry about getting sick, I freaking worry about the fact that I worry so much!

 

It's gotten so bad that I've finally worked up the courage to seek professional help.   

[Noandnoandno 100]

Yes, yes I do, it is one of the biggest problem in my life honestly, I worry all the time and I feel fear for majority of my life. Whenever it's small or big things. I am too scared to eat too much since I am afraid of gaining weight so I tend to under-eat for example. Then there are times when I stop and think about the thing I worry about for some time. Mostly concerning my future.

I absolutely worry over the smallest insignificant things. So much so that it can effect my mood for an entire day if I don't manage to focus on something else. 

[Teavvi 627]

Why have I not found this 'thread'? I worry way to much! Probably at least 23 times a day! No kidding.

[Denim&Venöm 16,517]

Oh all the time. I either get scared or angry over little things. 

[SparklingSwirls 21,261]

Yeah I guess so, but I don't worry about things as much as I used to. I guess I just got kinda tired of it.

[Justin_Case001 4,857]

I worry about every little thing to the point that my brain and body eat themselves from the inside out.  I think myself to death like a rampant "smart" AI.  It's hell in my head.

[Rulerofblocks 210]

I tend to have bad anxiety about things, and I do over think a lot of times.

[An Unknown Pony. 370]

I worry alot on some small but mostly normal things which leaves me exhausted and questioning myself

[Catpone Cerberus 23,427]

Yes, way too much about way too small things, past, future and present.

[Invincible 2,090]

It depends. Sometimes, i frankly don't give a damn. About anything. That's usually when I'm depressed.

 

And at other times, usually when I'm happier, i tend to worry a lot more.

 

I think there's a correlation between happiness and the fear of losing it, at least in my case.

[Detritus 258]

Yes, all the time.

 

Sometimes it gets so bad I'll make myself physically ill from it.

Btw, if you guys want to read a good self-help book on worrying then I'd recommend this:

I've read a lot of self-help books over the years

I tend to worry about anything and everything. I can't even walk down the street sometimes without thinking someone will jump out and stab me, or take a car ride and not worry about crashing and dying horribly. I'll stress out about something as simple as a doctor's appointment. It sucks, being this paranoid, but I'm used to it at this point.

[Dynamo Pad 10,777]

I tend to overly worry when I feel that I forgotten to take something with me. I also sometimes overly worry that I forgot to sign in when I go to work that I get really paranoid about it.

I have suffered from General Anxiety Disorder since middle school; (woo long span of time there) totally know what that's about

[MEOWKB48 1,864]

I have an anxiety disorder and I over worry so much over stuff. Whether it's due to something major or something small.

[Scootaloo Is Best Filly 576]

How do I put this? I am an extreme worrier who worries about everything. It doesn't matter how big or how small the problem is. I will worry about anything and everything. It doesn't matter if this problem arises 30 minutes from now, one hour from now, one day from now, or 70 years from now. I will find some way to worry about it.

[~Chaos~ 3,966]

Anxiety disorders can sure cause you to worry more, so I'd say so.

 

Screw anxiety!

[That Guy with the CMB 5,872]

Oh YES. I absolutely do about everything all the time. If I didn't, I wouldn't really have problems, to be honest.

[Midnight Solace 5,129]

Oh yes, I definitely do. I think about things so much that I can't sleep at night, or concentrate on anything else.

[Phosphor 11,522]

Typically, no. However, I do tend to worry too much when it comes to medical issues. I recently got very anxious/worrying while waiting for blood work results to come in. My mind likes to assume the worst here, for some reason.

[MangoFoalix 24,898]

Yes, that is my speciality.

[ExplosionMare 18,007]

I worry about school all the time. I’ll cry over homework and check my online grades as much as I would check a fun website like YouTube.

[Starlighty 790]

Sadly yes.. I been a worry wart since I was a kid..
