Absolutely, yes! I have almost constant, chronic anxiety/worry that takes up large parts of my day and consciousness every day! I hate it so much! I am diagnosed with GAD.

I worry about every possible bad things that could happen in the future, and how i will be able to handle it. . .and then worry that i will not be able to handle it! Even when i am not consciously thinking about something worrisome, I can still physically feel the unsettled, anxious feeling underneath.

I even worry about "not worrying," because when i clear my mind and try to relax, i worry that i am letting down my guard and something bad could happen. I get physically exhausted by worrying so much. When i get too stressed out or anxious, i have to go to sleep to get away from it.

It is awful to feel keyed up all the time, and not be able to just chilll out. My therapist is constantly working with me to try to help me stay in the present moment and not worry about the past or future, and to help me learn how to relax.
