Constant worry: : Yes, severe anxiety causes constant worry that it characterized by a lot of "what-if" thinking, also referred to as awfulizing or catastrophizing thinking. This is also called severe anticipatory anxiety, where you fear constantly that the worst will happen. Treatment is available for this. Cognitive therapy can teach you new ways of thinking and medication can be used. See a psychologist or md.
