Question

What is the meaning of the proverb - Worry often gives a small thing a big shadow ?  
what do you think about it? Can you give the russian equvivalent?

Answer

We have a similar proverb here in Algeria, when someone overestimates a problem, or something banal, we say " Don’t Make from the little stone a dome". So, a worried person will see through thick lenses to the problems, which would appear much bigger than reality. Some cases of this, may lead to paranoia as a result.

Answer

I hope I was able to translate this correctly: Беспокойство часто делает малые вещи показаться важне чем они действительно.
