Does anybody else get anxious when good things happen?

[BabyYoda]

The best way I can explain is that they give me false hope sometimes that life is great. They could be taken away any minute.......

 

[PartingGlass]

Yes. It seems most things are too good to be true.

 

[k75]

I'm always waiting for the other shoe to drop.

 

[marcusuk63]

My memory isn't that good .

 

[HereToday]

Yes because it's rare, and I know 100 bad things will follow soon after

 

[Manja]

It will be taken away like everything else

 

[Soulless_Angel]

something good has happened with me of recent, but my anxiety is through the roof as I am so scared I could lose it at any moment!

 

[Kifa]

Wish I would've been more skeptical tbh, it was all too good to be true

 

[mediocre]

A good thing has never happened to me but if it did it would probably feel like an out of body experience. I wouldn't know what was going on.

 

[Moonicide]

Yes, absolutely. I'm always afraid of the good things as it is a very foreign thing. In fact, there have been moments where it has triggered me as I don't know what do with it... When you're so used to being stuck and living in darkness, the light can be a scary thing. It's very hard for me to enjoy the good things that come my way as it never lasts. I know we're taught to live in the moment, but I'm always waiting for it to all crash and burn. The worst part is my instinct is usually right.

 

[porfin1234]

Oh yes. Because usually if something is good in my life I find a way to destroy it even if not consciously.

 

[Broken Chimera]

It's not that good things don't happen for me, but when they do I usually end up with several bad things following after. And they usually happening in an almost impossible way.
