Sadly, most people really don't care, or aren't as aware, and cerebral as that.
I believe that it takes certain personality types to become anxious and have constant negative patterns.

If you really think about it, the environment we live in, the things we see and are taught, and the sad realities of life all contribute to our anxious state.

Basically, you're anxious for a good reason. You're not crazy. Life is just very hard, if you look at it from a smarter perspective, and anxiety develops as a result of the unscertainties. What are we here for? Am I going to get a heart attack out of the blue and die eventually, etc etc. Because your mind knows that those are all possibilities, its like we intuitively know that we can drop dead from a heart attack, its possible, we also know that there are no concrete answers about life.

All these things contribute to anxiety. The more you think about it, subconsciously or unconsciously, the more it contributes to anxiety. If you're the competitive type, or the type that wants all a's, or what not, even if you choose not to be, but if your natural state is like that, it will contribute to anxiety.

Then when you're overhwlemed for whatever reason, anxiety attacks and physical sensations kick in.

It sucks, but its all logical if you think about it. It doesnt come from nowhere.

So basically saying, its a hard battle, and the smarter you are the more prone you are to these things.

do you believe in .God, maybe this is your way of trying to find him.
We are all on a journey trying to find something that makes it all make sense. I am glad I met him early for I dont know if it would have been easy for me either.

Soome look in other religions, some look for it in pple, some look for it in the satrs, and the only way to find it, is to find .God. Period. Ask .Him he will show himself to you.

God bless you

Having those thoughts are not abnormal, but if they interfer w/ your daily routine and cause you sadness each day, then it may be a good time to visit your doctor. Sometimes we don't even realize we are sick and need medicine. Just go and talk to your doctor. Also, prayer will guide you to your answers. Everyday I pray... Good luck and hopefully this will give you incentive :)

Howdy, i've recently been fixated on these questions when I thought I was dying during my first panic attack several months ago. I'm currently in college, and I plan to be either a rock star or physicist.

I strongly urge you to read the book " a brief history through space and time " by stephen hawking. It won't answer the questions as to why, but it does answer the hows.

While others tell you that god is what you need, I would say that's not the right recommendation. Faith, is more dearly important, and it's up to you and your experiences to figure out just what that is. Always keep your mind open, and good luck~

I myself question a lot. I ponder about what is my purpose, I have to be here for a reason. I question how long am I here for and is today my last day, then I begin to panic, because I do not want to die. But who really does?
I too believe in god, and the bible has a lot of answers if you take the time to read. Open your heart, soul and mind to the possibility of there being a god, invite him into your life and let him show you the way. It is a great comfort having someone to talk to 24/7 without judgement, without being turned away, but with compassion and to listen.
Some people think that believing in god is a waste of time, but I would rather believe in him and live my life for him than have no faith at all.
I have prayed for things before and the prayers were answered.
So, if you would like to try it out I encourage you without pushing my faith onto you. We were given the freedom of choice.

Whatever you find/decide I hope it works for you.

I just have to say that, although I am in the middle of a struggle with general anxiety disorder that I believe is the result of my constant pondering about "is"ness, you are NOT AT ALL ALONE! We all have these thoughts. I will help you in the way that I wish somebody would help me. I watch tv shows about the universe and others about atoms and particles (things we see in a microscope)- something tells me that the answers to those universal questions lies within microscopic evidence. But not in a scientific or conventional way. Just, somehow, if we can look at ourselves exactly the right way, with all of our opinions and observations perfectly perceived and accepted, then we can have all the answers we ever asked for. Just by being in the exactly intended mental state, which requires work and open-mindedness to achieve. Ever single day I am constantly wondering if death is near, where I will go, how the big bang is possible and what happened before it. As if somehow all of these questions will somehow answer eachother. Then, on some random weeknight when my family pops over and ends up staying for a bbq and a beer, I'll get in a fabulous mood, feeling content and positive about EVERYTHING, and I'll think, life really IS perfect. Then I fall asleep in my bad and wake up with a headache, and life as it was returns, confusing, frusterating. Debilitating, even. But, somehow, knowing that I can feel so good about being in this random speck of a whole lot of meaninglessness, makes me realize that even when it's hard to get through this life, this life was free and I'll get what I can out of it. Even if it only comes on a random weeknight. When you realize this, you find that the "hard times" in between those moments of complete normalness get easier to cope with and they become less and less frequent. I sincerely wish you the best of luck. Every single one of us struggles with accepting some kind of certainty OR uncertainty that we would rather not know to exist. love
