Yes.Everyone worries about their lives.Teenagers worry whether they will get admitted to the college of their choice,whether the cute girl/guy sitting next to them likes them ,whether they will get good grades, whether they should lose their virginity,whether they are hip enough to gell with their friends?The parents worry whether their finances will be allright,whether their kids will do allright,whether they will get their promotion?The old worry whether their son/daughter will look after them or they will have to live in an old-age home,whether they will get their pension,whether they could have done better in the past and so on.When we look at other people,we feel that they have a better life than us.The grass always seems greener on the other side.........We get so wrapped up in our worries that we often miss out the good things in life.We worry about the future and the past,But most of us forget to live in the present.The trick is to live every moment to the fullest and to take life as it comes.Only then will we be able to live a happy and a contended life.
Try reading "The Grass Is Always Greener On The Other Side"-----its a short story by Jeffry Archer.It might just answer your question.

Yes, I worry a lot. I worry about every situation and most actions I plan to take. I worry about whether I am going to get into college, if my life will turn out well, if I can ever learn how to drive, if I can ever get a job, if I'll go to prom, if I will deal well with college and make new friends.. I worry too much! But I think it's quite common.

Not at all. If i was to worry too much i would have ton's of wrinkles and it can make your life feel worse to a point where it can cause depression. I avoid it as much as i can. It doesn't do any good for a person to worry. I just block it out. For some reason i don't let things bother me in life.
Take care.

I use too, and use to stress about everything and what people thought of me. But i let it go, I'm taking life one step at a time, only comments im caring about is that of my loved ones and my personal relationship with God. Who ever doesn't fit into that box. I don't pay any close mind too. It's too much ya know worrying about what everyone thinks, especially when those people end up meaning nothing in your life. well yeah. Like i mentioned i use to, not any more.

No. & that's because worry never solves anything. I "think" about adversities, etc. I evaluate them, choose the best of all alternatives, but I don't "worry." Life is so serendipitous--one never knows how things will turn out. That is of course, not to say we haven't ANY control over them. Personally, life is a "journey" to me. I can choose my "fork in the road," & take responsibility for where it led me! (Sort of!) But to worry? Phooey. No. Honestly. Never.

It's hard not to worry when negativism is forced on us by the media constantly, but worry is not good for your health.
So I work hard to not worry about things. Besides, if you think about it, just the fact that the world escapes being hit by a giant meteor every day is reason to rejoice every time the sun comes up.
Worry wastes time and stifles creativity.

Sometimes I do, like school and family and just everything and I try to calm down and relax. I dont want to think about wut people think of me but I do anyway and I hate that I do. Why should I care what people think, it;s only there opinion and most of the time it isn't accurate. Like today I am wearing caprese cuz my mom is making me wash my own clothes now and I don't do laundry all the time and this is what I had left and it is 20 degrees outside, also my shoes didn;t match them at all and my hair is fixed like really pretty so nothing went together at all and I felt like everyone was looking at me and saying mean stuff but when I looked around no one was even looking at me.

I think most people in general do worry too much, they think that trivial things are of too much import and don't give enough thought to what is really important.

No doubt there are those who regret they did not worry enough .
So what is too much :the price of liberty is eternal vigilance .
If you can't hack the price give up the prize.

No I don't worry much about my own life at all, but I DO worry about all the psycho people here on yahoo answers.
