Always worried about bad things happening

Different people treat things differently and deal with problems in different ways, but for the same thing, some people are more optimistic, while others are more pessimistic, and even always worry that bad things will happen to themselves. The reason why many people suffer from depression is related to their own psychological activities. They always look at problems in a negative way, think of everything in a bad way, and make themselves unhappy.

Constantly worrying about bad things happening is actually a symptom of anxiety disorder, and the "if...then..." thinking pattern is very torturous. Many people don’t know what they are afraid of, so they continue to be anxious. This anxiety gradually turns into a habitual, compulsive anxiety, which is the basic manifestation of anxiety.

Anxiety disorder is different from normal anxiety: first, it is anxiety, tension and fear without any clear object or content and without any reason; second, it is directed towards future possibilities, and people feel that certain threats are inevitably coming, but the person concerned cannot say what kind of threats or dangers exist; third, the anxiety lasts for a long time. Without active and effective intervention, the person concerned will be in an anxious state for a long time.

Anxiety is not natural or instinctive, but it is certainly universal.

Anxiety provides the illusion of control when faced with life's uncertainties, which is particularly attractive to people who struggle with insecurity and fear. The pattern of this trap is: if I am anxious I can predict what is going to happen; if I am prepared, I will be less hurt. This sounds good, but please don't forget the common sense that everyone who loves to worry knows: anxiety will cause more anxiety. Anxiety will not solve any problems, but will only bring you more doubts and more pressure.

It seems that the reason we are anxious is because we want a sense of security too much. Then we have to find the root cause of the problem that causes anxiety.

When we encounter this situation, we can practice self-training and first ask ourselves: Are these thoughts helpful or harmful to me? Obviously these thoughts are very negative and totally unhelpful. Since they are useless, we should gradually give up the role of victim.

Next, we need to respond proactively. Face life bravely, change your way of thinking, get out of the continuous predictions of anxiety, don't intimidate yourself, don't predict anything, let life gradually reveal the results. If you are still feeling depressed, you can use "self-talk" to pull yourself out of the gloom.

1. What are the benefits of talking to yourself?

1. The tone of your own voice has a calming effect and gives people a sense of security.

2. Talking to yourself out loud can help adjust the disordered thoughts in your mind, especially when you are nervous or tired.

3. Talking to yourself is like having a conversation with a friend, each expressing your own opinions. In the process, the stone that is weighing on your heart may be removed, which is conducive to achieving psychological balance.

4. Talking to oneself is also a moderate way of venting, which can relieve inner confusion and conflicts and improve sleep.

2. Getting more rest and adequate sleep is also a good way to reduce anxiety. You can also adopt self-treatment methods.

1. Be confident and don’t exaggerate the possibility of failure. Every time you increase your confidence, your anxiety level will decrease a little.

2. Learn to relax yourself and free yourself from tension.

3. Anxiety patients usually have wild thoughts and become restless. In this case, it is best to stimulate yourself and divert your attention, such as engaging in strenuous physical labor to forget the painful things.

4. Most patients with anxiety disorders have sleeping disorders, and find it difficult to fall asleep or suddenly wake up from a dream. At this time, you can use self-suggestion hypnosis, or read a book with your hands. This method can also help you fall asleep.

5. In terms of diet, eating more fish oil, bananas, vitamin C, etc. can also have a certain effect in fighting anxiety.
