60 Question: How to Change my Worrywort Perspective How do I
Change my Worrywort Perspective? <br /><br /> Hi, everyone, I'm
GB and I'm a chronic worrier.<br> <br> Somehow, someway, along
the way (I'm a 43 y.o. male) I've grown into a world class
worrier. It's so bad I suspect I don't even realize how much I
worry anymore. Sometimes I worry that I'm not worrying enough
about something.<br> <br> Over xmas, while I was under an awful
project deadline, I had a short span where I suddenly had this
great perspective: "Life is too short. Don't live your life
worrying. Ease up. It'll all work out." <br> <br> Well, that
didn't last long. I'm back to my old self.<br> <br> Remember the
main character, Peter, from the movie *Office Space*, after he
had that hypnosis session? He was so laid back, so zen, he
looked unflappably happy
