Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?
- When I try to lock onto one thing, my attention slides off it within seconds and I have to keep dragging it back
- I only ever try to wrangle my attention once I’m already spiraling, when it’s far too late to work
- In the middle of a stressful moment I get hyper-aware of my own racing heart and how I’m coming across, and watching myself like that only cranks it higher
- Once my mind latches onto a worry I genuinely cannot pry it loose
- Some part of me secretly believes that if I keep turning the problem over I’m being responsible, that the worrying is somehow protecting me
