We/i/you feel like shit constantly

What is really the point?

I'm trying to think, and i can't think

Sure situations can be bad sometimes, but even so...what's the point in worrying/feeling down?

Does it help you figure out things? Is it something godly?

What if there's nothing wrong? and you still fret, and self-hate, and worry.

right now i have nothing to worry about

But i will sure as hell find things to worry about, like obsessively

I can never relax anymore.

is it a problem lying in the back of our concioussness, that we aren't aware of? manifesting itself into our everyday lives?

do we feel endless suffering so that we can figure it out and help release other's inner anguish that they project in illogical ways (i.e violence, corruption, being a general arsehole)? and ultimately help move towards a perfect society? This case suggests a higher power, and a yin/yang situation. "God" creates a bunch of people, who are all different and have the potential to figure it all out. We just gotta work at it.

I like the idea of the above, because it gives meaning to it all, but i guess that's the point of religion. I myself am unsure as to whether there is a God, i myself was always Atheist until recently. Now i just don't know, i kinda feel something. I just don't know


This isn't a self pity post...I just wonder why these feelings and thoughts bug me/you relentlessly? What's your opinion?
 
Obviously some people have this condition worse than others and some have grown out of such a condition. Everyone will always have some type of worry in their lives, but I was able to cut this worry out of my life by just telling myself, "Life is way too short to worry until death".
 
We as humans are going to worry by nature. It is actually beneficial in many cases. Anxiety and stress are biologically and psychologically important in so many facets of our survival, decision-making ability and often motivates us as people. I can easily get myself worked up if I have things I need to be doing but procrastinate instead. Then I sit and worry myself to death that I didn't/am not doing the things I should then be doing. This goes on-and-on til I make myself follow through with action. It's as if I'm getting some shrill anti-thrill by being irresponsible. The anxiety is tough and the whole cycle may last anywhere from an hour to days. The older and wiser I get, the less I seem to find myself in this situation. If your life is being negatively affected and you feel overwhelmed by worry, consider seeing a professional who can teach you ways to better control or even eliminate nagging anxiety, etc...
 
Well the way I see it - is yes the dark side, the monotony, the feeling that we in our jobs each day - it's like - this is it - this is everything we ever went to school for and we chose this..

But the way I look at it is that - the world isn't going to swallow me whole tomorrow. I amnot going die peacefully in my sleep overnight - what you gonna do..? sink or swim?

I have to swim, because sinking scares me.
