[QUOTE="jjraak, post: 2517781, member: 493719"] So sorry [USER=546970]@Jojo85[/USER] On the anxiety front . Really can be hard to get a hold of it sometimes Sure we all have our own best method, but 2 come to mind for me . One was to make list of what worries me, etc. Then try to work out if it's REAL = going to or likely to happen Or Hypothetical= a possibility. The other, is I visually see my problems / worries like cars, traffic. When I get overwhelmed I'm too near the traffic So I visually place myself on a nearby hill overlooking it all. It's more peaceful & I can see the traffic more clearly . Helps me identify WHAT I'm anxious over, then it's into REAL or HYPOTHETICAL. And a new category since crash Is what I call out of my hands . If I decide it's real, but I can't do anything about it right now, then it's out of my hands..I'm powerless to do anything about it Then I find it easier to just repeat that phrase and let it go Not as easy as it sounds, I'm sure you know But works better for me then getting myself all wound up.
