JITTERY JITTERY 😰😬😧🫣

This write-up is about one of the most significant emotions almost all of us experience quite often in our daily lives. This emotion does not discriminate based on age….. 😰

Why does this jittery feeling overpower us easily in our daily routine is the question?

In the prevailing times, I strongly feel we all experience nervousness very often.

In today’s precarious world- There are countless reasons to make people nervous in today’s circumstances.

In our day to day routine, even simple situations like, when the maid or cook takes off from work, too much of traffic woes, cancel of cabs by the apps based taxis etc etc triggers this feeling instantly within us.

Even sending a toddler to a daycare makes parents nervous, as we are not completely assured about the safety and security for our little ones there.

The invasion of screens in our drawing room has made parenting increasingly difficult.

The helplessness parents feel in trying to control the screen time of their wards creates a nervousness within them. This state of worry has become a normal part of life for most of the Parents.

A best example for becoming jittery is the overall influence the social media in our lives. Fewer followers, no likes, no subscribers, all these insignificant issues of social media concerns have the power to make people restless and insecure.

There seems to be no escape from enduring this jittery feelings in such given situations.

This has become a matter of serious concern for all of us in today’s world.

Botox, Fillers, Veneers, age defying tablets, Rhinoplasty

To name a few, are taking centre stage in today’s lifestyle. This clearly reflects how physical appearance plays a major role in the lives of both men and women. The obsession with maintaining a beautiful slim figure for women and six packs Abs for men cannot be overlooked. When people feel they do not meet these standards of beauty and glamour, then it often leads to depression. This in turn plants within us a constant nervousness about how our face and our body appear in front of others.

The insecurities arising from the instability in relationships can elevate nervousness to Himalayan heights. This is one of the significant reasons for the nervousness being very widely seen in most of us. This feeling of uncertainty gives rise to the anxiety which is very common to witness in present times.

This jittery feeling does not spare even the young students, who pursue higher studies in foreign countries.

People who move abroad for career and financial stability are also not free from this anxiety.

The unpredictability of the present times creates uncertainty ,and this intensifies nervousness to its maximum in any individual.

The reason for highlighting the above instances in this blog is very simple

Earlier, nervousness was associated only with significant moments in life like, job interviews, marriage proposals, when becoming a new parent, a major health scare, checking the entrance exam results or Board marks for the first time. These were unavoidable major turning points of life and career where feeling nervous was natural. Slowly and steadily things have drastically changed .

How slowly and steadily has nervousness become the part and parcel of our daily routine?

Nervousness becomes part of our nature, when life doesn’t move as per our expectations. This state of uncertainty is the culprit behind an unsettling feeling experienced by all of us.

It does not matter which corner of the planet we may live, rich or poor, employed or unemployed , old or young -

EMOTIONS ARE THE COMMON THREAD WHICH CONNECTS ALL OF US IN THE SAME LINE”

We are all aware of the saying :

WHATEVER HAS TO HAPPEN HAS TO HAPPEN,

Nonetheless

WE CANNOT STILL AVOID THIS FEELING OF NERVOUSNESS THAT CREEPS INTO OUR LIVES AT VARIOUS TIMES IN OUR DAILY ROUTINE.”.

Isn’t true that, despite understanding this philosophy, the human mind continues to worry, overthink about the uncertainties of life?.

You may not control all the events that happen to you, but you can decide not to be reduced by them.” – Maya Angelou
