Be honest, home much time do you spend worrying about things you can do absolutely nothing about?

I have allowed myself to a 15-25 minutes mental breakdown during stress where I hard cry and go all in on self pity and worries.

Roughly 18 hours a day.

Depends what you mean by worry. Inactive apprehension? Unaided concern? Purposeless dread? All of these have both uses and drawbacks. It's in being wise enough to know how much or how little importance to place on them, how much to admit to. How much energy to invest in avoiding or addressing a thing.

Nothing in the human range of thought is there needlessly. Contrary to popular opinion.

Only a dog either buries a bone or worries it until it's an unrecognizable lump of calcium. Being human means finding the challenges that are presented to us by the great big everything of reality, address them if we can and at least, accept them when we think we cannot.

Sufficient unto the day is the evil thereof......Never let events conquer your spirit.

"Worry is like a rocking chair, it gives you something to do, but it never gets you anywhere." Erma Bombeck

I do not worry anymore. I concentrate on living my life my way and happily. Simply. Worry gets you nowhere.

Very little actually... Time is much better spent on those things you can affect

There’s usually a low-key hum there all the time anymore.

What's a healthy number?

I'm getting better at not doing this

I gave up on doing that a long time ago.

a great deal. I have difficulty distinguishing between worrying and "thinking about." So,...sometimes when I worry I come up with ideas....so I convince myself that the worrying is useful. But, geez worrying hurts.

maybe 15 min

All day

Wasted time is definitely a part of solving some things. You don't know ahead of time what the breakthroughs will be.
But okay,! Everyone in yer jobs doing what I say! No worries! Just work.

{@heida] i do especially with ukraine and other silly things you do yourself no favours but if you are are worrier that is the way you are and you cannot help that fact

I don't worry about the things I cannot change. But I haven't accomplished much either 🤷‍♂️

Almost every day. I have habit and I am in process to break the cycle.

Not too much but it’s taken my a lifetime to get to this point

More than I'd like, considerably less than days gone by thankfully.

I acknowledge its existence, but I don't worry about it.

Don’t worry at all about shit always a answer to a problem always

Haha… about half my waking hrs. I like to control my destiny

A lot. I am good until i lay down and then my mind goes into overdrive

Way too much. Do I need to drink even more? 😎

Anxiety is the scourge of Western society.

Everyday 😞

I feel like I was born with worry.

I don't. I'm very selective what I care about.

Lots unfortunately

Every waking moment.

my nipples hurt
