Poll of the Day > Some people don't really have anxiety about stuff

(+) Yeah! (+)

At least not to the point where it has a strong effect on their life

Thats difficult for me to even imagine. Like actually imagining going through life without worrying about stuff and over analyzing things is hard for me to really wrap my head around. As a very anxious person I feel like it would feel like driving around in a car with no brakes.

That's gotta be the life.

Like general anxiety? Or do you mean from the standpoint where you are on medication for anxiety already?

I don't, when I'm on ma meds

Same. I don't know if it's a bad thing to have at least some anxiety though. I feel like all the people I know who have made poor choices in life just don't stop to think about anything

my dad doesn't. which is good. he's seen stuff that would give less stable minds PTSD.

to his credit, he takes others' anxiety at face value and just says "i don't get it"

Ignorance is bliss

i have severe anxiety which i self-med with weed

To live life without worry, I vaugely remember what that was like... but it was so long ago.

Sure when i was a kid i didn't worry. played games all day and had the whole world ahead of me.
now in my 30s im reminded my of my declining metabolism as i continue to get fatter/slower. I worry about the stock market and will i have enough to retire some day? worry about cancer as it becomes a more common thing the older you get. etc
