About This Quote

A person who is a chronic worrier is very likely to have a hard time stopping themselves from looking over their shoulder in fear of being attacked by a ghost or something worse. The feeling of being watched is so strong that the mind will not allow the person to relax. This often leads to the person tensing up and pulling back from whatever they are doing.
