Everyone has different things that make them anxious. We're all our own person, which means what makes you anxious may not make someone else feel that way but at the same time something that makes them anxious may not affect you at all.

Anxiety may be caused by environmental factors, medical factors, genetics, brain chemistry, substance abuse, or a combination of these. It is most commonly triggered by the stress in our lives. Usually anxiety is a response to outside forces, but it is possible that we make ourselves anxious with "negative self-talk" - a habit of always telling ourselves the worst will happen.

How much something affect a person depends on how much he or she feels attached to it. If something is bothering you too much it means that you are caring about that thing too much. And for many things we choose whether we care or not, but for somethings it's just because of our nature. And only time changes it.

Some people makes us feel more anxious than others because we feel like we need to look or behave a certain way when we are with them so we can gain their acceptance.

We are all unique and some, such as yourself, may have personal experiences or medical issues that increase anxiety levels. Your response is a natural response to what you are experiencing and understanding it will help you feel more in control.

Some of us may be a little bit of idealist and sensitive than the others. We thrive for perfect future and want everything to go according to plan. We can't tolerate mistakes, for mistakes we made would dwell in our mind for a long time. Other people may be a bit more carefree than us and tend to take everything as they stride. They arent better than us,and neither we are better than them,because anxiety makes us uncomfortable but makes us think of the possible things that would happen in our life that leads to carefulness

Your mind has a way of finding every possible outcome to a situation, which sometimes, ends up making you paranoid. Others may not feel that way because they aren't as focused or as thoughtful as you are.

Everyone's brain and experiences are a little different. It's okay to feel anxious about things, and it's also okay to wish that something didn't make you feel anxious. Just remember, there are things that don't bother you that make other's anxious. Cultivate compassion for yourself.

Different things make different people anxious and there's nothing wrong with feeling anxious about things that don't bother other people. It's just part of what makes us who we are. This is going to sound weird, but just for example, I won't swim in deep water, and I most certainly won't swim anywhere where I can't see in the water for the simple reason that I am terrified of fish. It sounds silly, but even looking at a fish makes me want to cry sometimes. Even a tiny little minnow I just cringe even thinking about it. That's definitely not something that makes most people anxious but fish make me SO anxious and I've accepted it as something that sets me apart from other people.

Everyone is different. Others may have different things that make them anxious that don't bother you at all. These things can be influenced by personal experiences, genetics, and many other factors that are all totally unique to each person. However, just because someone doesn't understand the way you feel does not give them permission to be dismissive of your issues.
