Worry is to torment oneself with or suffer from disturbing thoughts; fret.

Anxiety is defined as the distress or uneasiness of mind caused by fear of danger or misfortune; while

Depression
is a condition of general emotional dejection and withdrawal; sadness greater and more prolonged than that warranted by any objective reason.

Hence from the definitions above, we can clearly see that worry is the root cause of anxiety and depression. Worrying about things leads to the distress of the mind which is anxiety. Over a sustained period of time, this leads to a condition of sustained general emotional dejection which is known as depression.

I've been told that worrying can result to nothing positive. At first, I thought that it is but natural for us to worry and entertain it, but now, I've realized that there should be no tie allotted for that emotion, instead, optimism and positive things should be welcomed.

shifting the focus on to the other person works magically indeed. so, as I wrote about art therapy club Modus Vivendi (see http://trustlight.blogspot.com/), all worries for my personal limitations (for the hardships of my disability) just vanished from site ... even now, when the need to pay the Internet fees threaten to stop my blogging, the thoughts about my destiny brothers comforts greatly - don't allow to weep, but prompt to search for the outcome.

Thank you for the wonderful post.
