Does anyone have any tips on how to stop worrying unnecessarily?
Stuff I worry about like will I find parking? Will my friend have fun hanging out with me? Am I doing enough at work to be successful?
Basically I constantly worry about everything and I have a hard time turning it off.
Try to keep yourself busy as much as you can, try distract your self.
I am the same. I worry about everything. I'm not sure what the answer is, except maybe Claire Week's book. Distraction does help, but only up to a point as the worry breaks through.
I know it's no consolation but be grateful that it's not bad enough that working is near impossible. Find someone that can help you figure out what may be causing the excessive worrying and how best to manage it. The earlier in life you can start this process the better.
Distraction works well when it's at crisis levels to help you calm down. It's not so great to lean on for day to day relief as it becomes just another unhealthy coping mechanism. I can numb myself for hours distracted with online activities, but the anxiety is just waiting and I'm no better off and may even shame myself for wasting the time.
Best of luck.
All the time! Lol. I've just learnd to live with it. Acceptance is a powerful tool to help you move forward.
I used to worry about anything and everything, just random thoughts, until I made myself sick. I've been on Buspar for many years because of it. I call it my miracle drug because I don't worry about anything, whatever happens, happens. I've never had any side effects from it either. Best of luck to you.
Is this new or have you always been a worrier? If it is new, is there something that has changed in your life to bring this on? If it has been long-time, have you ever talked with a counselor to try to find out why you worry?
Don feel too guilty, is okay if you these things cross your mind, but don't constatnly worry about the same thing over and over. One thing that has help me is alwasy reminding myself, "I'll cross that bridge once I get there", so until it happens, I try to put it burry it and deal with it until it happens. Also, try to have a day for yourself, where you dont think about anything or anyone but yourself, you deserve it
Hidden read this book ASAP. It’s a long and continuous process that requires complete honesty with yourself and the ability to reflect on past situations and connect actions with thoughts and feelings to understand why you had those feelings and then be able to learn and grow from that specific instance is the whole shabang.
Here’s a simple litmus test to ask yourself: if I don’t control 100% of the outcome of something, what do I gain by spending time fretting over outcomes that “might” or “could” happen? Are you mad when the weather sucks? Why?! Literally why? Thats a waste of brainpower in every sense of the word. It doesn’t do any good to worry about what if, instead, focus on learning and growing from every situation in which the outcome is one that wasn’t exactly what you wanted. Stuck in a traffic jam? How about next time you try another route or road at the sameTime? At least that way you know that you’ll not risk repeating the same scenario twice and eventually you’ll eliminate negative outcomes for the bliss that comes along with the mindset that if I stay present in the moment and only pursued things that help me grow as a person or being me joy, I’m doing the thing with the mathematically greatest chance of earning a positive outcome because I’ve eliminated potential threats to a good outcome be loving learning and adjusting all the way through.
