Are you someone who worries a lot?

[MoonFace2]

[NathanDavis]

more than preoccupy myself with worry... I do occupy myself and I am proactive about things...

to prevent, to foresee, to be prepared just in case... and not from a place of worry but precaution and to have that assurance, that whatever happens, I might be in a better place of readiness for it

my work has a lot of that, being a family man also has a lot of that... and general in life nowadays, does require that too... lol

now, if I get caught lacking and get in trouble unprepared... I might worry a bit much, depending on the situation...

[MoonFace2]

Family man…so a man with a wife and kids, or do you mean you’re a family minded and friend minded sort of man?

[MoonFace2]

Yes, I think the pressure is on men to be tough. It’s unfair to men.

[NathanDavis]

family and friend minded, yes...

[MoonFace2]

I thought that was what you meant 😊. I’m family and friend minded, myself. I would get married if I met the right man. I probably wouldn’t have kids. But if my partner really wanted kids, I might compromise and have one. I love kids, but I’d rather not be a mum.

[NathanDavis]

I am quite sure that I were married, and it would be married to the right person... I could go with either... have kids or no kids, I could be with her, either way

[MoonFace2]

Yes, I agree that it needs to be the right person to even consider marriage or kids.

I used to worry a lot. I still do at times but I think therapy has helped me to have more confidence in myself and my abilities which has helped my worry wart tendencies quite a bit.

[MoonFace2]

Me too. I worry too much. I know men and women who do and those who don’t.

[superchan2011]

Yeah I wanna say I get that from my mom as she's a natural worry wart too. But I don't know. My dad just kinda seems cool about stuff like that. Like you wouldn't be able to tell if he was worried. What do you find helps you though when you start to worry?

[MoonFace2]

I talk to people or I read, or drink a cup of coffee, or have an early night with nightmares.

[superchan2011]

Oh man, well I hope the nightmares aren't too frequent. But I usually try to meditate, listen to asmr sounds or listen to some nice calming music while taking a leisurely stroll when I get overwhelmed with worry. It helps quite a bit.

[MoonFace2]

Those are good ideas 😊

[superchan2011]

Yup. Really anything that's not a toxic vice such as drinking or getting high that can help take your mind off of worries when it gets to be too much I'm all up for and would recommend to anyone else who's also a worry wart. So definitely give those things a shot the next time your mind is boggled down with worry.

[MoonFace2]

Okay, I’ll try them. Thanks 🥰

[superchan2011]

You're welcome👍👍👍

[superchan2011]

Oh and also if none of what I mentioned helps don't forget therapy is an option too. I almost forgot to reiterate that I did that too. Really having a neutral third party listen to your concerns and give you tips and advice comes in handy too.

[mandyfire98]

I don't usually. I'm pretty easy going as far as that's concerned.

[Nikki1989]

No, I have very little to worry about.

[MoonFace2]

That’s fantastic 😊

[bowenw]

Normally not unless it's something serious, like a surgery.

[AmeerX]

Yeah, I do worry about a lot of things that I shouldn't worry about

[Anonymous]

No. I use to when I was younger and less financially secure.

[Account]

Yeah.

[GoodGuyBreakingBad]

Yes, I am for sure

[MK1997]

Depending on what it is

[jack1924]
