Here’s something new to worry about: You worry too much. What a vicious cycle.
A new study found we’re literally wasting years of our lives worrying. We do it for an average of one hour and 50 minutes a day. That’s almost 28 entire days per year . . . or five total years of your entire adult life.
The top 10 things we worry about are: Work . . . money . . . being late . . . a friend or relative’s health . . . our own health . . . relationships . . . missing a plane or bus . . . not waking up to our alarm . . . our appearance . . . and our family’s safety.
A few things that just missed the top 10 are: Growing old alone . . . our pet’s health . . . being the victim of a crime . . . terrorism . . . and getting cheated on.
The study also found 84% of us have lost sleep over worrying . . . and 60% say it’s affected our relationship.
