Depends upon the kind of problem and whether its still going on then yes if its a past mistake then no .

Yes for example if your child or someone you know or love is being abused and you don't think it's a problem it most definitely is still a problem. The fact you don't think so in no way changes that

I believe that usually as humans we tend to exaggerate and overreact to situations. Sometimes a problem might not be as huge as we make it seem and sometimes problems are not even there and we create them because of fear. So, in my point of view, there are some cases in which problems do not exist but we think they do, and others in which problems are actually real. I reckon the real thing we should think about is what we do to overcome a problem whether it's real or not. Do we keep worrying or get into action and deal with it? The right answer is we deal with it! And let worry go !

once u think about a problem as a normal encounter or just a common thing that is okay to hapen it doesnt become a problem anymore at least u numb the feeling of worry inside u

@Laura this question doesn't need a yes/no answer.

Definitely it varies depending on what the problem is and whom it is affecting. Perception plays a major role concerning out reaction to the problem, but we need to be realistic.. for sure ignoring a problem or telling ourself it's not that big of a deal would never make it fade away.

Yeah, I think so. I think we try to convince ourselves it isn't a problem because we're in denial or afraid to accept the reality of it.
