Does this sound like the set of challenges you might be facing?

  • I burn the same energy on every worry, whether or not I can do anything about it, so I’m exhausted and nothing gets handled
  • The scale barely moves so I assume nothing’s changing, but my body feels softer and weaker than it used to
  • My worries all blur into one big undifferentiated dread, and I can’t tell which ones I could actually do something about right now and which are just what-ifs I’m powerless over
  • Underneath the actual worries there’s a second layer — I’m scared that I can’t stop worrying, that all this worrying is going to make me sick or break me — and that fear about the worrying itself spins me up even more.
  • I treat every single worry like a problem demanding a solution, so I build elaborate contingency plans for things that haven’t even happened and probably never will, and it leaves me wrung out

Practices that may help

  1. Distinguish actionable from non-actionable worries
