Good day low night

[Wyominganxiety]

Was so proud I got so much accomplished today fought through the anxiety, but I can't help but think horrible thoughts about my relationship with my fiance, like my mind keeps convincing me he's going to leave or doesn't love me anymore... wish it would stop before I end up being the cause of an actual breakup

Hi Wyominganxiety,

Anxiety and depression often lead people to think in ways that are

distorted, unrealistic, not accurate and unhelpful. In Depression, people often think in negative and

pessimistic ways, whereas in anxiety, people often over-estimate the likelihood that something bad

will happen, and underestimate their ability to cope.

Have you ever undertaken the Seven Question Thought Challenge to address and change unhelpful thoughts and thought patterns?

This technique involves questioning your thoughts rather than just assuming they are correct and going along with them. Challenging thinking is likely to have a positive flow on effect on your mood and behavior.

Here's how it works

Unhelpful Thought : - My Fiance is going to leave me or doesn't love me anymore

Q1 Is this a thought trap - an example of an unhelpful thinking pattern

Q2 What is the evidence - for this being true or evidence to the contrary

Q3 Is there an alternative explanation - can it be explained some other way

Q4 Can I see it from a different perspective - what would a good friend say to me in the same situation

Q5 Will this matter later later - will I have different thoughts about this later today, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year

Q6 What purpose does this serve - does it help me act positively & constructively or is it undermining me

Q7 How can I best respond - what is a more balanced alternative thought. How can I act in a helpful way

This challenge is well known to be difficult at first. More information and tips is in this link for you
