How should one respond to being told...”I worry about you?” Should they be worried? Why would they be worried? If there is nothing to be worried about, must they be asked, “why they are worried?” It is a change in behavior or maybe no change in behavior that is so worrisome? Showing emotion? Not showing emotion? This is very important and much more than you may want to think because worrying about someone is vastly different from caring about them. Worry denotes deficiency, a lack of ability, negativity, it is judgmental. Caring about someone denotes you love them and see them struggling and you want to help and support them.
Here’s the thing if you keep the behavior unchanged … the behavior that causes people to worry about you becomes the source of more worries. Aren’t we all to be worried about in such times. Is reassuring them there is nothing to worry about the route to go. Why worry now? Lose your temper? Sob? Take charge? Ask the same question back at them, to potentially make them question themselves?
However, when something is really wrong and worrying is needed there will not be any need for concern because nothing is different about you.
It simply means that there are things we must do when we have people in our lives who care about us...worry about us, by worrying about their worrying, about us!
We still have a long way to go to get to a destination of “normal...a worry less state.”

I had a meeting with my boss and she kept telling me...”I worry about you.” I know I have been struggling as a leader during this pandemic, but her worry stems from the fact that I cannot keep up—14 hour days, 7 days a week for 8 months is hard. It wears on your mind, body and soul!

Get the Worry About Youmug. Here's a sentence using "know what one is about":
She was a seasoned negotiator who clearly knew what she was about.

Get the know what one is aboutmug. No I don't think that. The people around me want it to be about THEM and what THEY want me to do. I literally don't even have to be there and they WANT ME TO HAVE TO BE THERE. They get something out of it.
Hym "It's not that everything is about me it's that they refuses to let it NOT be about me until I let them compel my behavior and whatt YOU are doing is filibustering until I give up and go away. And you think I'm a psychopathic narcissist? You think I'm the thing I said I am and that somehow detracts from the fact that I called your religion a 'Psychopathic Narcissist worshipping incest cult that makes YOU think you're better than everyone because your pee-pee feels good when you fuck your wife and 9 months later you have a little clone that you have complete dominion over so you can re-live your own life again from a different perspective before you die so you can have the double life in some weird "God in the garden of Eden" fetish and then you can get mad at your kid when they don't do what you tell them "That's not what I would do! You're living me life wrong!"?' That's what YOU do and somehow I'M the creep? You freak! You're the one doing the incest cult shunning ritual to me, fuck-face! You're the one who picked a side you fucking incest freak!"

Get the <.7.9.7.6.>today is a day for teaching that real patience is not about stopping but walking calmly and focus-mindedly<.7.9.7.6.>mug. A phrase used by people who are absolute morons in life and don't know how to get their shit straight. Usually used by bitch ass 9 year olds in arguments when they want to be tough. (but then sound like a piece of shit) Also commonly used by racists.

Get the cry about it crackermug. Hym "It's always been about what I'm saying it's always been about you lying piece of shit. You tell these incest cult freaks to shut the fuck up. You tell the shit-lib hippy hivemind to shut the fuck up. And you force those YouTube freaks to tell the truth. And you do it immediately. You remove these piles of sentient waste out of my life. PERMANENTLY. Or I will do I for you."
