Issue of overthinking and pessimistic.

Meditation - Meditation practices Self-Awareness which allows you to disrupt anxiety based thinking. Meditate 5–30 Minutes a day for 1–3 weeks before you add the points below. Headspace (No paid promotion) is a great start for getting into Meditations. Writing down your Thoughts - In addition to Meditation try to write down your thoughts multiple times a day. It is likely that your anxiety comes from the Narrative you have with yourself throughout the day. Keep a thought-journal and set 3–10 reminders a day to write into this journal. Action - What steps are you going to take to solve the causes of this anxiety-based-thinking? “Okay… now what?” Accept the thought for what it is; a thought, and then try to move into doing something about it. Remember: If you cannot do anything about it, what’s the point in worrying? It will stay the same anyway. And if you can do something about it, what’s the point in worrying? It will not stay the same. Whenever you write down a thought that makes you anxious immediately behind it write what you will do about it. Daily Rituals - Habits and Routines are the key to pre-emptively combating most of your anxious thoughts. Spend 5 Minutes a day on each task important to you or create strong habits that you engage with daily that combat your biggest Anxiety-driven thoughts. Keep a list of habits and check mark them daily. Keep the list to 5–10 Habits. Start with only holding yourself accountable to 5 minutes per habit per day. Big Steps - What would solve your Anxiety? What would truly solve that? What single step could get you there? Example: If your Anxiety comes mostly from your finances, how much money would you truly need to get rid of those thoughts? Could you reach out to somebody rich for a sponsorship? The Big Steps do not have to be likely to work. The point of this step is to get you thinking bigger and get you to actually work on the process to solve it. Besides, maybe you do get lucky which would end it all in one single step. Keep a list of things that could solve your Anxiety in one go and try to take at least one big step a week. The above steps do not seem like much but they are what will get rid of most peoples anxiety if done consistently. Anxiety, simplified down a lot, is basically just worrysome thoughts that have repeated and grown so much we believe in them to be true. Be that the idea that we are too stupid for our job or the fear that our partner will leave us or the worry that we will never get out of this financial hole we’re in. Anxiety only occurs when we let these thoughts reign in our minds as truth. To combat this you must solve the Narrative, the stories you tell yourself, as well as doing something about the sources of your anxiety, ideally with both small, daily steps as well as infrequent, big steps. There are many other tiny tips which can help ease Anxiety, but the 5 steps listed above will get rid of most of it. That being said, here are the small tips: Positive Visualizations Positive Self-Talk Optimistic Mindset Comparing to people that have it worse in that area Remembering that you’ve beat everything thus far Asking if you can still be happy even if the worst case scenario does come true Creating an Emergency Plan for when the worst thing should come true Smiling & Laughing Delving into Nostalgia Getting Productive Getting Lucky Hugs Being in Nature Exercising Drinking more Water Sleeping/Napping Doing something exciting or something that breaks your comfort zone a bit New Experiences We have now talked about medium & short-term anxiety, but have not discussed long-term anxiety. If you have recurring, long-lasting anxiety that disrupts your life or find yourself in a constant, low-level, state of anxiety, then the only proven way to get rid of it is to seek help. Most recurring or long-lasting forms of Anxiety have far deeper roots than any of the tips above will be able to deal with; plus most of the reasons for your Anxiety will be very personal. For this the above may help but none of the above are a replacement for a professional that can work through it with you. Talking to a Therapist or a Psychologist that specializes in GAD (General Anxiety Disorder) can be a start to combat this. Remember that there is a spectrum for this disorder, and if you find yourself constantly anxious you will fall somewhere within that spectrum. Give yourself a chance by calling in for a Consultation. Remember that this is so you lead a better life; it is worth it.
