"Our innate desire is to be happy, and when we move away from it, we experience fear. This fear is millions of years old, for it arises from the biological programming of our species.
Running questions with this type of urgency and helplessness trains our brains to prepare now for future danger by loading our bodies up with the stress hormone cortisol.
Anxiety is our anticipation. It weakens and exhausts us. We usually worry most about things that we can't control.
It is enervating, and it drains you of purpose and hope, faith and initiative. It fogs up your thinking. And it makes the body susceptible to illness.
Caught between the past and the future you create a pattern of emotions that can lead to a variety of mood disorders. This, in turn, translates into depression."
