Are You Always Waiting For Something Bad To Happen?
Cosmopolitan India|June 2019

‘Everything in my life is great...so when is something bad going to happen?’ Shari Nementzik finds out why she (and a lot of us!) always assume the worst.

Are You Always Waiting For Something Bad To Happen?

Right now, my life is going pretty great. I have a great job, a great boyfriend, great friends, great family, and, best of all, we’re in great health (*touches wood*). I should be jumping out of bed and bouncing off the walls, surely? But instead, I’m riddled with fear.

Every day I think, ‘When is something going to go wrong? When is my bubble going to burst?’. Please don’t get me wrong, this doesn’t mean I’m not thankful for the life I have...I’m just terrified of losing it, and all too aware that I am not invincible. I’m constantly on edge, just waiting for something bad to happen, and there’s a big lump in my throat—all the time! Earlier I used to think, ‘That’ll never happen to me’ when tragedies flashed up on the news or when I heard of heartbreak IRL, but now I’m more of the mindset, ‘It definitely can— and probably will—happen to me’.
