Thinking about the universe and the nature of reality is typical for intelligent people. The problem is that you imagine the universe as something frightening and scaring. You may try to start watching some science-fiction movies like “Star Trek” or movies about quantum physics like "What the Bleep do We Know?", for instance. You can come to view the universe and future as promising, and full of possibilities. You can use your imagination to overcome anxiety.
