I started to worry at your age (I'm 65 now) and the advice I would give is to use the worry to explore what you might want to do and how to train to do that. I just worried and took what jobs I could get, etc. and it was not until my 40's that I started doing what I wanted and working for my own purposes (even while working for others). Get in front of the worry instead of staying behind it and letting it block your view of what you want and what might be possible for you. Since you're a worrier you probably have a great imagination, use it to your advantage to imagine what's possible now instead of what's all in your head about the future (worry). Since it's the future which we can't know, I figure one might as well imagine good outcomes instead of possible bad ones?
