Worrier Quiz

Ten Signs You May Be a Problem Worrier

Answer "YES" or "NO" to the following questions:

  • Do you just worry about money instead of making concrete plans to earn more and/or spend less?

  • Do you brood over what other people think of you, despite many reassurances that you don't need to?

  • Do you feel apprehensive in the midst of success, as if "the other shoe" will have to drop sooner or later?

  • Do you tend to pay off fate with worry, as if believing that if you just worry enough, bad luck will leave you alone?

  • Do you often feel the undertow of old hurts in the present moment?

  • Do you find that you don't worry when you should, but you do worry when you don't need to?

  • Do you feel that fear holds you back in life?

  • Do you ever have attacks of sudden anxiety or panicky feelings?

  • Do you feel that your worrying gets in the way of your enjoying life, instead of its being the useful guide nature meant it to be?

  • Do you wish you could just "lighten up?"


A "YES" answer to any of these questions means that you may be a problem worrier. For additional information or to speak with a professional about your concerns contact Employee Assistance Program (EAP) (207) 581-4014. Services are free and confidential and are available to all faculty, staff, and their families.
