How much does your worries effect you?

Big bee's topic on escaping from the bad stuff kinda gave me an idea about this topic...

I bet everybody has worries of there own. They can probably effect how a person acts. Well my question is... How much do your worried effect you?

I have mentioned this before but my worried are probably my greatest fear (even though I haven't mentioned it in my fear topic). My worried effect me so much. The procedure is that I get worried about something which leads to feeling guilty. Which results giving me a feeling that the things that I like to do are leaving me behind which kinda makes me feel sad and I often feel down about it. When I feel worried about stuff, it results myself asking families and friends the wierdest questions which is also embarrassing. Even thought I feel like I am okay after the worry goes away... it doesn't. I stays the same only in a different situation. This is something I hate about myself. My worried lead to guilt and effect me so much.

How do your worried effect you?

It's a good and deep question, it made me think for some time during my reflection moments (at the bed). I think that the worries help us to maintain active our mind, and also all the problems always have something of what we can learn.
The worries always teach us something of ourselves and what surrounds us, but the problems can sometimes be so painful, so complicated that they block our capacity to reason. In those moments what I do is to distance me from them and to see the situation from "outside" to observe my situation as if it was happening to someone else, what happens is that we are usually better helping others than ourselves :wink: .
To me it serves me to remember something quite simple and at the same time useful, we are the only ones that can truly control our emotions, to realize that no worries can conquer us if we really don't want.
And it's a little strange but encourage someone else it also finishes cheering up me, it's easy, a smile in the fair moment can cheer anyone :) (it seems that the smiles are contagious), try it!
A hug HolyArrow! :)

good topic. but hard too answer. ever since my mom got cancer i have been more woried than ever before. every day i think of how fragile life is and how my siblings may grow up with no mom. it pains me. but my brother is great he would never hurt me. he respects me and would never try anything sneaky behind my back. i hope he does not find out too soon because i am worried how that would affect him. you see he stresses out way too much. oh well i can only hope for the best.

That's tough, it should be a heavy load over your shoulders :( but I believe that you have a great will and you'll be a great support for your family, don't worry everything will be ok :wink: . And regarding your brother, maybe you could sit down with him alone and calmly explain to him the situation, you'll see that he will understand and you will take off a great weight from you. Give him a good :) and you'll see the contagious thing that it can be, because if he sees you in good humor he will also cheer up.
A tight hug and that cheers arrives leejakobson! :)

Hmm, well, it starts at about 1:00 pm when I start getting ready for work. I think, liSighli "Oh, joy! I get to see what I did in the office yesterday that totally messed up my bosses work-life!" Then my stomach gets into a knot so I forgot to (or refuse to) eat lunch. Then I get to work and find out a few tidbits of mistakes I made that need changing, usually no problem, and I get on with my work day. So much for fulilling your dream of working in a law office if it costs you your health, huh? :? :wink: But God knows I love it when I get there. It's just the first office job I ever had, and this is a very full school semester for keeping a full-time job. Heh, 17 hour courseload and 34 hours a week at work. I'm officially a work-a-holic now, I guess (if not, I'd hate to think how much harder it could be :shock: )

Then I listen to some Evanescence, Kelly Clarkson or some other rock group to... keep me uptight... wait, that doesn't make sense. :?

My worries depend on what I am worried about. Mostly, its whether or not my writing will fail.

I understand, and I think that if your mother ask that to you is because she trust you. I wish the best for you and your family, you'll see that after the storm comes the sun.
Cheer up! :)

well i try to bein the best of moods. no matter what. i used my fan fic as a way to express my self. i have made many improvements on the first 2 chapters.but it will be a long time before i finish it.

My worries affect me more than I'd like them to.. They effect me so much sometimes I can barely do or think anything else.

some times you just have to find an outlet for your emotions.

Ooh... that's unfortunate. Especially since she's dealing with what she's dealing with. That's one of those things that stress doesn't help with.

You can always beat him up. JK! JK! JK! Heh... my cousins are the same way with their mom (my aunt). She ended up getting a divorce, and now she has full custody fo three kids with no self-discipline. Kinda makes it difficult, you know?

well my little brother has sticky fingers so me and my other brother have to keep everything under lock and key then we have to constantly check him for anything he might have took. he has taken a video game called mario rpg that original price when we bought it years before we adopted him was about $49.99 he sold it for $10.00 now to replace it with one in equal condition because they don't make it any longer i have to pay the some of $80.00 - $100.00. he pulled this stunt a year ago. i cant afford to replace a game i got as a gift so any money me or my brother have is either on us or in a locked cabnet. he also takes great joy in manipulating my dad by picking a fight and playing inocent. so my mom ends up having to deal with it. he really ticks me off.

Well, that's why I don't have brothers! :wink: He sold that game? Oww man, It's a classic! You must have the patience of a shaolin monk with him if he's still in one piece! :lol: But you know, being unique son is not so good since sometimes, when the world seems to be against you, you need somebody who you can chat a little. Maybe you don't think about it right now but in fact, you're very lucky of have brothers who can support you.
A hug! :)

i know i am lucky to have brothers but only one of my two brothers is supportive my older brother is a good guy. very supportive and i really love him but my younger brother i want to hang by his toenails. (if it was not in my pocket i keep it thier because my older brother kept missing twenties from his walletr after his naps. he works a night shift and my younger brother would sneak in our room while he slept and steal money from his wallet ended up stealing around 300$ before he finally was caught. he got away with it so long because my brother thought our dad was borrowing money for cigurates but when he finally ask dad he denied ever taking money. the next day my younger brother was sent home for shoplifting. when he got home my mom realized there could be more stolen so she offered a lesser punishment if he admits to everything he stole thats when he said he stole around 300$ from my brother the game from me, various amounts of money from his sisters piggy banks including from a 4 year old little girl, needless to say i dont have much use for the little eh i just wont say) he would sooner steal from my wallet then thank me if i was nice to him. he cares not if we hurt. its all about what he can get. give him a millimeter. and he steals a kilometer. get it now. we have everything locked up i am a prisoner cause of him. everything i own i have to ask to get. it is just so frustrating. :x :x by the way my mom was the only reason he was not broken into tiny pieces for the game.
