"that I’ll mess it up or miss it- the future."

It is.

As someone who's a constant worrier, I always worry about the future.

"I try to live in the moment but well ya know it’s hard "

That's because it's easier said than done.

It really is.

.

On my bad days, my mind is usually either in the future or the past.

Sometimes it's because of a stress/anxiety trigger that I'm dealing with.

Sometimes it's because of my GAD, but yeah it's sometimes hard to stay in the present.

.

That's why whenever I give that advice, "Try to stay in the present" I usually say somewhere in there, "and I'm usually guilty of this myself". :(

I know very often it seems that way but you are not alone, we all feel your pain and most of the time I’m scared as well and riddled with “What ifs?” and I “should haves” etc But it can be a very lonely place; I often will not ring friends to let them know I am feeling down as I think they are too busy with work/ their own families etc - I don’t want to pester them when they need their own family time.
