The uncertainties that come with change can be triggers for those struggling with anxiety. They can also cause anxious feelings in people who are not experiencing anxiety.
Changes could be in the form of seeking a new job, starting a new relationship, ending a toxic relationship, getting married, leaving an abusive marriage, starting an exercise regime, travelling, going on a diet, taking an online course or moving out of your parent’s house.
The fear of change comes from either the lack of inspiration to leave a comfort zone, or the fear of having a negative outcome. This anxiety can be due to factors like childhood experiences, current socioeconomic situation, or just personal perception and negative view.
