Hi everyone I worry about everything, that's why I have a generalised anxiety disorder lol! But I swear the news about nuclear bombs in North Korea are putting the willies up me, what if he nukes us, what if their is gonna be world war 3??? I have news alerts on my phone and I'm constantly putting on the news! I am so on edge and my anxiety is sky high....am I just being silly? 😯
Hi Pamela you must stop feeding your anxiety.l would imagine we are safe.Don't listen to the news and try to understand that worrying about these things will not help you in any way.Try to relax your mind and overcome your obsession with checking the news
Pamela I would be really s****y about that I have been working really hard for my retirement but if does 2 crazy do something thing what can we do look on the bright side the doctor has been telling me for a long time that my anxiety is very common so I can tell him a doc what our you worrying about dying is very common
Hi Pamela, I am sorry you are suffering. I too have GAD. I worry about everything too. I have had to stop watching the national news. It freaks me out. You will need to learn what triggers your anxiety and set limitations on those triggers. Calm yourself by deep breathing, walking, journalling, etc.. Have you tried therapy yet? It helps me a lot. I go once a week to a group therapy session. It feels good to be around others who understand what I am going through.
Hi thanks for your replies yeah I started phone therapy through the NHS. ...which is ok...I have to have a worry time set for 20mins and write down all my worries, she has given me other things to do as well for my anxiety too 😊
