Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another.

Constant worry

Does anyone else have constant worry?  I worry about everything. Even things I know are going to be fine.  I overthink everything as well.  I am in constant anxiousness because of this. Any tips would be greatly appreciated

Yes, I do. For my psychotheraputed nickel, the constancy is the diff between worry and anxiety. Worry stays focused on the problem at hand. Anxiety goes everywhere, whether it is invited, or knot. Overthinking is the very mechanics by which worry escalates to anxiety.

But that is me and every case is unique.

My most sincere tip would be to keep making posts like this one to help you sort the particulars of your own case. Gentle support while you sort.

You are not alone.

With worrying you will make a mountain out of a molehill. It cost me my last job. I'd go to work, go home, and fret about every single little thing or person I had contact with at work. This would go on all night and most times I couldn't even sleep. It was terrible.
I had to quit for my own sanity. I go to counseling now on a regular basis, it helps. Please try and find someone you can talk to, or seek professional counseling. It really could cripple you.

    I haven't written in my diary on my computer since May because I thought that my computer was dying.  I got away from writing but my computer is hanging in there.  I think that I will start writing in it again.  It's so therapeutic.

    First, I hope everyone is doing well, and continuing to fight that good fight! Keep up the great work on yourselves; I'm rooting for all of you!So, I started doing therapy at the beginning of the year, when I was in my most depressed state, but with my therapist, I made big changes and steps in the right direction. But, over a month ago, she couldn't take my insurance anymore, and I had to stop...
