I get very scared and upset of the thought of a family member/my partner being ill or dying, any thoughts of how I can get over this?

When my partner has been just generally poorly, it makes my anxiety levels a lot worse, I feel extremely scared for her and think the worse possible thing. I have these thoughts with anyone close to me.

Hello lifee,

Wow I was going to ask that last night but decided to enjoy the moment with my kids and it helped.

Distract yourself when you think about it.

We are all mortals we will all die one day, so make each day precious and enjoy life.

Take a big cleansing breath and spend time with that person you have those thoughts of call them if you can't see them and tell them how much you love them or appreciate them :)

just accept that we have no control over the inevitable, there is no easy way to control bad thoughts but maybe if you distract yourself when the thoughts arise.
