I just realized something about myself. I’d always partly believed it when people say I worry too much about things I have no control over. I was starting to see symptoms of General Anxiety Disorder. But I just realized that I only stress over things that aren’t being taken care of, which means they are things that I can still do something about. However, if a problem exists but something is being done about it, even if it is not yet resolved, I’m fine! Someone I care about may have serious hypertension issues, but if he’s on meds, being monitored by a doctor and is taking steps to take care of himself, I don’t worry about it. We do what we can, and the rest is up to fate/the universe/powers that be/God. If the same person is in denial about his health and is still out there getting drunk and partying it up and not taking his meds, THEN I worry and stress, and try to get him to see the light. I think that’s very reasonable.
