What do you generally worry about? I have GAD (generalised anxiety disoder) and I worry a lot too about specific things (I’m not willing to talk about my worries on here for everyone to read but I will quite happily talk to you in private if you would like). I have problems sleeping and over analyse EVERYTHING.
Although I am not practising what I am about to prah, I would recommend talking to a proffesional if you can although, I know how hard that is to do as I still can’t bring myself to see a councillor.
When I am worried I try to do the following things:
- Speak to someone I trust (there are only 3 people in the whole world that I trust so it’s not always easy)
– Take a nap (again this isn’t easy because if I am really woried then I can’t sleep but I find that if I do sleep then at least I am ot thinking about whatever it is that has got me worked up)
– Have a good cry (sometimes it releases tension)
– Take my dog for a walk, ride my horse or go for a drive (I am lucky that I have the option to do all of those things, I don’t know about your circumstances so I am aware that these may not be an option for you but the reason I find these help is because it gets me out so I am not stuck inside four walls)
– I use something called Rescue Remedy which helps calm me down, I would definately recommend that you check out there website www.rescueremedy.com
I hope I have been able to help little, I can understand what you are going through and, like I said, I am always happy to chat privately to anyone that is going through something similar to me.
