What are Britons worrying?
|
Britons spend more than five years of their total life worrying, or 27 days a year, according to a survey.
The biggest cause for anxiety is personal health, followed by financial issues and crime, the findings of advice website ReallyWorried.com revealed.
Young people in their late teens worried most, with 10 per cent spending 12 hours a day stressing, although perhaps surprisingly getting on the property ladder preoccupied them more than sex, their education or environmental fears.
Women worry more about their partners having affairs while men worried more about sex, either a lack of it or their performance, according to the research based on a survey of 2,000 Britons.
"The research shows that most people in Britain are really worried, whether it's about something monumental like their partner is cheating on them or something relatively simple to sort out such as getting to grips with technology," said Richard Rubin, founder of ReallyWorried.com.
The survey's top 10 worry issues were:
1. Personal health
2.Outgoings& income
3. Crime
4. Cost of living
5. Terrorism
6. My children's future
7. National Health Service
8. Gun/knife culture
9. Global warming
10. Pensions

這項(xiàng)對兩千人進(jìn)行的調(diào)查顯示，女性最擔(dān)心配偶會搞婚外戀，而男性則主要擔(dān)心性的問題，他們要么擔(dān)心性生活不夠，要么擔(dān)心自己在性生活中的表現(xiàn)。
ReallyWorried.com網(wǎng)站的創(chuàng)辦者理查德·拉賓說，“調(diào)查表明，大部分英國人都很愛‘操心’。他們不是擔(dān)心伴侶背叛這種大問題，就是擔(dān)心如何緊跟科技這種小問題?！?/font>
