Stop being afraid of what could go wrong 
And think about what could go right.

    Thanks @janer1967 @Sandy_123 yes me 2 I suffer with anxiety and social anxiety I actually sit and wait for things to go wrong in my life because I can sense when things are going to go wrong

    Yeah I'm like it with car journeys,  or in crowds, but it turns out ok

    The current news doesn’t help, nothing but bad news at the moment.

    i used to pre judge situations a lot when I was younger but having been made aware of that I started to alter my thinking. For example I would pre judge a family get together thinking all sorts would go wrong for me and then not go, giving some lame excuse or other for not taking part. Too much thinking like that can leave you housebound if your not careful, which was happening to me.

    Thanks for sharing this motto with us @Nicetomeetyou22. Really powerful as always  :)

    It sounds like a lot of our community members are experiencing anxiety at the moment. Understandably so but if you ever need to talk to someone, we are all here for you!   <3

    That sounds like a really positive strategy @leeCal. How do you find it?  :)
