chronic worrier
I know I worry too much! I wake up at night worrying,and trying to solve problems. I always devise contingency plans in case events etc go awry. I can always see worst case scenarios and try to work out what I'd do if things go wrong. Why do I worry so much and others - so little. Sometimes I worry on behalf of other family members who seem to think everything will go alright. I don't think so! I am wasting away my life on excessive worrying, what can I do?joanbaker on 2005-04-21
This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Write more about yourself as an individual. What is your birth sign? If it wasn't for your name we wouldn't even know if you were a woman or not. Age/preferences/dislikes.
What about childhood things?

I am a female aged 54 and I am a piscean. I like peace and quiet, I go for a lot of walking with my dogs and partner and we both love the countryside. I go into town only when very necessary! It is difficult for me to socialise and as I'm not really very comofortable at get togethers and parties etc. I don't like bullies, selfishness and violence (who does!) I do like going to the theatre, concerts and cinema. My childhood was not too happy! My mother was very bad tempered, prone to violent outbursts, and intimidated my Dad and myself. I was very frightened of her (even as an adult) and so was dad. So he never stuck up for me when I was at the receiving end of her abusive behaviour. I really don't think she liked me at all. In contrast I adore my children and grand children!

Hi there I would like to say that I am 26 and up till the end of dec was incredibly stressed due to a mass changes in lifestyle and well it all got on top of me and I had to go the Dr I felt like there were hands around my neck and all over my chest pushing and pulling me and it was really frightening. The Dr said i think you are suffering from your nerves and people that do need to learn that if they don't stop working themesleves into knots they could be VERY ill. He said to me Y"ou need a holiday , to think more about you and live your life free of worries by trying to do what you want to do." i think for example: If your mother/friend/partner is worried don't take on their worries, do what you can to aid them, take them out etc , buy them flowers , listen to their worries but don't let it creep onto you as that won't help them as they will then worry about you and it all circles out of control.Now when I feel ths hands tighening around my neck I stop, I take out my stress ball I squeeze, I make some tea and I think this situation is not life threating and I take out my mirror and I smile at myself.
I hope this helps - everyone deals with stress in different way just try to find your fix.

What a great doctor!! Wish I met him when I went through it.
Dear Joan, please read the post "Live in the Now."
Your mother really was a sad person to do so much harm. She probably was never a happy person in her whole life.
It is unfortunate that children "believe" all the flack that is laid on them. You have to know now, that the child (you) is safe with you now.
I am much older than you and I also had a meany, but it was a step-father. It took me years to get over it, and sometimes little things jump up at me, but when I got out of the house, (at 16) I was determined another person would not ruin my life.
It took awhile, but I finally learned it was "their" problem, not mine. I HAD to find happiness any way I could. I learned to put myself FIRST. Odd thing happened, when I put myself first, I was able to love others fully. I no longer felt "less."
So give a look in that mirror and say nice things about yourself as you did about your little ones. You are a nice person, a loving person, or you WOULDN'T KNOW THE DIFFERENCE and WORRY about it!! Put yourself first in care and love because it feels good, not out of fear.
I feel that you let others be just who they are...now do the same for yourself, just be who you are.
