People of my generation fondly remember the movie, High Society. We watched with delight as Sinatra and Crosby crooned their way through reels of celluloid. Unfortunately, we are now living in a situation that could be described as High Anxiety as we struggle through miles of clogged roads, cope with high pressure jobs and juggle competing demands.
Anxiety is more than fretting about a big problem.
It's a generalized feeling of gloom and doom. It's that feeling you get in the pit of your stomach on Sunday evening as you think about going to work on Monday morning. Anxiety is also that demon that wakes you up in the middle of the night and causes you to worry about nothing in particular. They sign up for cruises and getaway weekends. They roam through shopping malls buying things they don't need and will never use.
