On a long enough timeline, everything is temporary — the good and the bad, the fear and the courage.
And, true, some of the unease and anxiety that accompanies change is very short-lived (like the trepidation of standing in line to ride a roller coaster). Other times, the unease and anxiety is longer-lived — lasting for years. It depends in part on the magnitude (the width and the depth) of the change: i.e., the bigger and more profound the life change, the greater the unease and how unsettled people tend to be. It also depends in large part on where a person is starting from — their basic level of “differentiation” — a person’s ability to manage and cope with anxiety and stress and intense emotions and situations.
