Steve-O has revealed he's in a "perpetual state of anxiety" as he opened up to his fans on Reddit.

Replying to a fan who asked: "Hows life Steve O?" Steve explained that he regularly meets up with a group of men to "talk about our feelings" and candidly admitted that he has "an incredible ability to constantly be full of anxiety and stress."

He wrote: "I have a group of men who I meet with regularly, so that we can all talk about our feelings (really), and at our last meeting, I told them that I feel I would be hard-pressed to think of ways my life could be much better, but I have an incredible ability to constantly be full of anxiety and stress.

"And that I can imagine my life ending with me thinking, 'Why couldn't I have just relaxed a little bit and enjoyed myself?' I've spent a lot of time thinking about this, and I've come to accept that my constant state of anxiety, stress, and fear is useful for me," he continued. "Because it keeps me working hard and remaining productive. So my answer is, 'life is uncomfortable, but that's OK.' Thanks for asking!"

Later on in the thread, Steve replied to a fan who asked: "What are the best and worst parts of your life now?" he also shared that he feels he's "never comfortable." Steve replied: "The worst thing is that I'm basically never comfortable. I spend my life in a perpetual state of anxiety, stress and fear."

Adding a positive message, he added: "The best thing is that, because I'm always anxious, stressed, and fearful, I force myself to work constantly to achieve goals, and that has caused me to create a great life for myself.

"I think it's worth noting that most people's biggest advantage is also their biggest disadvantage. Part of me wants to learn how to relax, but the bigger part is too scared."
