Hanneklaas Dec 2021 1:30pm, 10 Dec 2021 83,081 posts	Quote Pin Hanneklaas I try and live by the day too, but not always easy, especially nit the last couple of years. The human condition is such that we strughle if we cannot plan ahead or if plans keep getting cancelled by the powers that be. I am not usually stressed but have been the last couple of years. So much so, my damaged heart has been playing up for the first time since sustaining the damage...
Tim of Fife Dec 2021 1:34pm, 10 Dec 2021 3,586 posts	Quote Pin Tim of Fife It is a very, very hard change to make. Especially with a starting point like mine, where I worried about everything. But, with baby steps, have made real progress. I noticed one other strange thing too. When I am well hydrated, I worry much less than when not. That may be just me.

EvilPixie Dec 2021 1:39pm, 10 Dec 2021 29,637 posts	Quote Pin EvilPixie I'm fairly OK just sensible but I speak to mum every day and she is a hermit and terrified now so I can't help but hear dread
EvilPixie Dec 2021 1:44pm, 10 Dec 2021 29,638 posts	Quote Pin EvilPixie in fact I'd go as far to say that all my anxiety the last 18mths has related to worrying about mum's actions (lack off) fear and health

Merry Christmas and Happy NewG(rrr) Dec 2021 2:24pm, 10 Dec 2021 40,526 posts	Quote Pin Merry Christmas and Happy NewG(rrr) Thinking about the future isn't the same as worrying. Nor is only concentrating on "the now" the same as being relaxed. Anxiety as a mental condition can affect many parts of the thinking process, rational and irrational. A simple exhortation to concentrate only on now, or worse, to ignore the future, doesn't necessarily help. I do think about the future. I am lucky not to either suffer from anxiety, nor to be an over-worrier. G
