Do you have other anxieties too?

[nj]

Besides health, do you fret about other things?

I know I've had anxiety about my kids health, flying, losing electricity, you name it, though health is by far my number 1.

I'm always thinking the worst about everything, especially things out of my control.

I worry about my kids too much.  When they're out and if I call and they don't answer I'll work myself into a frenzy--usually to tears.  If I hear ambulance sirens and they're not home, I panic.  My kids are 17 and 19 years old.  My daughter is in college 3 hours away.  It's hard but I know I have to let go.  She is interested in the traveling abroad program and the thought turns my stomach (I don't tell her that, though). 

I also worry about finances and my financial future, too.  My husband worked in the trading/brokerage industry for 19 years which is long gone because of computer trading.  He did not finish college and doesn't have any other career options.  He works for his friend (whom also was a trader) that started a roof/siding business doing sales.  We have no benefits, no insurance, no retirement.  He has so much time at home but refuses to get a second job for insurance. He's too busy fishing and hunting.  I finally decided to use the money from my job to purchase health insurance for me and my 2 kids.  Not having insurance was too much for me to take.  I feel your pain. I wish I could stop worrying about everything!!

Driving is my worst anxiety. Since I have had major panic attacks while behind the wheel, I am scared to death about having another one. This is my number one issue I am determined to get ahold of in this new year!

I believe anxiety is just a large umbrella and it can manifest itself in many ways.

Flying and travelling are two of my biggies. I had to get over my fear of flying and travelling for a business trip.

I also have some social anxieties by I ignore them. Most people can't tell except for the odd time when I say something awkward. I hate public speaking, too. I'm only 26 but I worry about my future, especially since the economy is so bad. I have a university education and lots of great experience under my belt now. People keep telling me I won't have a problem but I still worry. I also have anxieties about my family and loved ones. I worry about my parent's health and well-being because they're very close to me.

I definitely have other anxiety issues. The weather, driving on expressways, my family's health/safety, crime...you name it and if probably makes me anxious lol. I've dealt with many of those since I was a child so I'm able to suppress them better than HA. HA will send me overboard.

Oh driving in bad weather is a big one too. Especially if there's a bridge involved anywhere.

Tornadoes are one of my biggest fears . Living in the middle of tornado alley sucks. Come summer time me and the kids practically live in our basement.

YEP! I am a stay at home Mom and know that I am just a worry wart. If I am not worrying about my health I am worrying about my dog, or the baby, or my husband losing his job. Just silly things. I would much rather worry about the other things rather than the health anxiety-that seems to bog me down the worst. Reading the bible does help..
