rough times man, you've got to let it go
if it progresses to the point of full-blown panic attacks, it doesn't go away very easily and there are a ton more symptoms
/on SSRI meds currently due to panic/anxiety attack problems |

OK, so what some of you guys are saying is this.
One of my biggest worries is the well being of friends. Since I cannot change their actions I should not care? |
You can't change their actions, but you can influence them. If a friend is going to do a dumb thing, let him/her know.
But in the end, it's not your responsibility of other people's stupidities. (Unless you're directly involved somehow)
Concerned yes. Interested in other people's wellbeing, yes.
Worry, no. |

caring about your friends is awesome marg.
but... worry vs concern.
concern is care and giving thought to the well-being of these people - but when it becomes worry that's when it starts to become a negative force, impacting you.
you can be concerned, and help in the ways you can - but you have to let go somewhat - in your mind - when you are beyond the means to help any further... can't let it get unhealthy (not sure of course to what extent your worries affect you). |

I'm not sure if I'm worrying all the time, or just thinking. I constantly evaluate situations that myself or others are in, and obsess over the conclusions they come to.
Yet, I'm still relatively easygoing. |

Im a big worrier.
I worry about my friends and loved ones alot, which is normal for most people.
I am making a huge effort to stop worrying about things I have no control over, it isnt worth my stress. |

Would you consider stress and worry the same thing?
I think I get stressed more about things then I worry about how it is gonna be. So in that case though I would still rate myself in the middle. |

Often I find that me worrying about something will not change the outcome of a situation.
So, since I don't need the stress from worrying, I just don't do it.
happens. Life sucks sometimes.
Deal with it as it comes.
Worrying is not going to change that fact. |
1000% (if thats possible) accurrate.
I can see ppl's concerns for others - not that i dont occasionally
think aboput other's problems - but honestly, worrying is one of the
WORST/stupid things in the world.
It does absolutely NOTHING but make things worse for yourself.
If it's not in my hands/control, i refuse to worry.
In the end, my worry level is 1, if that:) |

Margs, not caring and not worrying are completely different things. |

When it comes to friends and even family all you can do is help them when they ask for help, make sure they have all the information they need to make an educated decision and let them make their desicion but even if you don't agree with their decision support it and be there for support. |
