The Emotional Cult of Worry

We take the worries with us to work in the morning. In the evening we bring them back, and we add others. He doesn't leave us alone even when we put our heads on the pillow.

Instead of relaxing, we wake up with them. Thoughts take the form of worry and come like a stream, flood, master, make you stay awake for hours at night trying to find solutions to past, present, or future problems.

"Worry is a God. An invisible one, but an omnipotent God. A God who steals redness from your cheeks and the color of vitality takes away your appetite and appetite, whitens your hair overnight. (Benjamin Disraeli). A God that only will and exercise can control, I would add…

Excessive worries, the self-destructive god that contemporary man worships

There are many of us there. On the street, in a corner of an office, in a community, in a room with four walls, in a car that has to reach a destination. There are more and more of us who can no longer lower our foreheads even in the face of truly beautiful or important things.

There are many sad people, who walk with their heads down or people who walk on the street wearing an invisible mask on their face that tries to mimic happiness. We are all more of us, the ones who let our thoughts lead us, instead of leading them in the desired direction. Many people wake up more anxious than when they went to sleep.

There are many worries that grind us in our little free time, in the time we should spend relaxing and letting our minds fly free. There are many black, white, gray, black, white black thoughts, but many, too many, too many related to the bad things (good rarely) that have happened to us or could happen to us.

Concerns also come to light, related to work, crisis, dissatisfaction, personal life, partner, etc.… Obviously, we associate them with some causes, reasons, quite relevant from our point of view, extracted from the surrounding reality.

Then the cruel and ruthless "If" appears. If I had done otherwise, wouldn't it have been better? What if I implemented what I wanted to do some time ago? But what if I don't succeed?

If I had weighed my words better, maybe it wouldn't have happened like this… "If" it multiplies, divides, and gathers, it becomes a whole philosophy, it becomes overwhelming, harmful, more than you can carry. Worry turns into a monster, one that grows as it is allowed to take shape, grow, develop. But what if we gave up on the negative influence of this word?

Statistically speaking, women, more than men, are deeply emotional beings, even if they mask this well, they tend to worry about something, no matter how minor.

Worries and worries are not an invented problem, but one that, in the case of its persistent non-construction, can easily lead to anxiety, depression, dissatisfaction, sadness, and in the worst cases even to suicide. But worry can be overwhelming and can cause us to break into thousands. The wave of doubt and skepticism seeps into the soul imperceptibly.

We develop a strange feeling as if we have always carried our worries with us. If left untreated, worries can become the body's biggest source of energy. They can weaken the immune system. They can lead us in the negative direction of our worries.

The concern is not selective and does not take into account the social or financial status of a person. And the rich are worried about money management or business plans, and so on.

If it is too intense, anxiety can be considered anxiety, but worries are usually a matter of psychological education or even temperament. Some temperaments are more inclined to negative thoughts, more prone to worry (eg women more than men, sensitive more than non-sensitive).

If we do not learn to get rid of them or keep them under control, excessive worry can easily turn into a mental and emotional problem. The possibility of things getting out of our control absurdly can become a certainty. Concerns are natural and sometimes even have a positive effect in the sense that they mobilize us to achieve a goal.

But when we feel them as an acute feeling of anxiety, fear, and heaviness that dominates our thoughts, then we can say that the concern is excessive.

Worrying about the future is normal, but it becomes abnormal when it becomes a constant state of mind. Chronic anxiety involves the feeling of losing control over things. At the subconscious level there is the idea that if you "worry enough", you can prevent the cause of your concern.

When you worry too much, your mind and body focus exclusively on your projection and on "what might happen." From a physiological and psychological point of view, spending a long period worrying minimizes the body's ability to react optimally without stress.

Instead, it weakens the cardiovascular system, causes gaps in positive emotional functioning, while inducing insomnia, loss of appetite, and life. Excessive worry can adversely affect relationships with others and even your life partner, concentration, and professional performance.

Concerns about things and situations that have happened in the past will not be able to turn back time or give us a chance to solve things properly. Concerns about the future, if they are in excess, prevent you from seeing the positive aspects of it.

We will discuss the weapons with which we can fight against excessive thoughts and worries in a future article. Positive thinking, confidence in the future, self-control, self-suggestion, or consulting for specialized help when worries and worries get out of control are excellent solutions.

"If you can solve a problem, then what is the use of worry? Can you solve it? If you still can't solve a problem, then what is the purpose of worry? It won't be solved anyway. Why are we still worried then?" (Shantideva)

Why ?, I ask too…
