People say stop worrying which I am trying to do but I said I'm of a nervous deposition so it can be hard. Had 3 major events happen to me over the past few months & I live alone, money, job etc., What do others think?

I always clean when I am worried. Try finding a hobby to distract you. Wood working, crochet, puzzles, volunteering. Give your mind some else to think about. Something good to do that is helpful and productive. 🙂

Hi I have had a good chat on the phone to a close friend which was good. Had a shower, made dinner now trying to relax. All those things were hard but at least I have done it. I wish I had a dog, they are a best friend

Why do people say that like it is a switch. There are tools and coping skills to chose but you can't just choose to stop worrying when your mind has other ideas.

Maybe try speaking to your brain. “Thank you for bringing these potential problems to my attention. You can take a break now, brain, and relax.”
