What the title says.
Im 22, male, no college, no true passions, no debt, still live with mom, have a "good" paying sales job, my boss likes me etc… etc…
life is good right now in a lot of aspects. (also have an amazing girlfriend and mom and work environment)
But im constantly worrying about my future. Cause the type of work i do is easily replaceable by AI and i dont know if we can be sucessfull for like 10 years plus in our industry. (right now everything is going amazing and went amazing the past 3-4 years, althought i only joined 2 years ago.
But yeah, thats it.. Im always devaluing myself in comparison to others who have college (although the job market is being tough on everyone).
And im constantly worrying about my future profissionally, not being able to provide or to own a home or to have a nice car for my familiy, not finding another job similar to what i do, cause thats the only thing i really found out im good at etc… etc… worries worries worries.
So yeah, i would love to read a book about how to control anxiety. Cause a lot of times it affects my digestion, evacuation, apetite, mood (obviously), heart seems to be always racing although monitors and blood pressure meter says otherwise and me zoning out when being with people that love me and talk to me. I actually sleep and fall asleep well tho.
Note: the physical symptoms i just mentioned, arent active 24/7. They are really inconsistent and most time of my day i feel well, but sometimes theres those random moments where i feel the symptoms i just described.
TL;DR: Young male worrying about the future professionally, about not having the foundations to a good family life because cost of living is worsening and fear of not having stable financial situation, suffering some anxiety and physical symptoms cause of constantly thinking what if shit goes sideways. Could use a book to learn to control my anxiety or embrace it. Im sure a book would teach me a lot and would ease my mind. Im not depressed, sad or whatever. But the future is something i tend to be afraid of.
