[quote=Anonymous]I am in an active group of 200 moms. I would guess 50 or so are very active and we know each other pretty well. I am always surprised how many of them have anxiety that impacts their life - either diagnosed and medicated - or just demonstrated by the things they worry about and the severity / duration of those worries. I think if people around you are anxious it can amplify it. I see peers reach out for reassurance and their fellow anxious people reassure them “it is scary! You aren’t crazy”. Except I DO think they are overreacting, over estimating the chance of bad outcomes, or having trouble letting go of repetitive, intrusive thoughts. I don’t say anything because I feel like it would make me seem like an unsympathetic jerk. Tl;dr - I too am shocked at how many people live their life in a constant state or worry and fear. [/quote]
