Worry
When people spend a lot of time thinking about bad things and negative experiences or consequences they are experiencing worry.
In certain situations worrying can fulfil a function such as preventing us from doing something which may be dangerous or inspiring us to take control of a situation. Worrying is normal, almost everybody does it. However, some people worry a lot more than others to the extent where it interferes with their daily life and they may even begin to worry about worrying. Worries can be about the past, present or future and the body responds to worrying in a similar way to anxiety and the 'fight or flight' response is triggered. Some people find it helpful to write a list of what's troubling them and keep referring back to it so they can seem how improbable certain worries actually are. It may also be useful to write down reasons as to why a worry might be unjustified and might not actually happen, this may help you see which situations warrant worrying about and which do not.
