Hi Ferny122 and Welcome

When we lose control of our lives through loss or situations around us, it

gives anxiety a place to slip into our minds. Overwhelming thoughts will

come and go but it's the believing in them that brings on the anxiety symptoms.

Affirmations, Meditation, Breathing, Therapy & Medication can all play a part

in getting these thoughts to stop. However, it is a practice that must be done

each and every day when you might be feeling well. This gives the subconscious

mind a chance to build up a reservoir of positivity to be used when those ruminating

thoughts take over.

It's not that they aren't working but your brain needs time to absorb what it's being

told. Using Affirmations etc both before bed and first thing upon awakening for at

least a month, can give the mind time to change it's way of thinking. After that

continual practice of these tools is what will work when you do need to stop the

insanity. Anxiety loves to play games with our minds but games are meant to be

won. Time will show you this won't last forever. Believe that you will be able to

gain control of your life once more. :) xx
