To ask what it's like not to be a worrier

[babysnowman]

I'm a lifelong worrier. If I don't have something to worry about my mind will find something to worry about. I'll imagine all the worst possible outcomes in a situation and convince myself they are likely. It's almost like my mind tricks me into thinking this is a defence mechanism.

I've done cbt etc but the bad habits always creep back in. I know quite a lot of people who are like this too.

Id love to know what it's like not to be a worrier but more importantly, how you keep things in perspective?

Some great tips on this thread - - i just downloaded Stop Worrying Start Living onto my kindle, I'm hoping this helps.

I just don't worry. Whatever will be will be is my motto. I'll deal with the outcome when it comes.

I am like this. Worrying over small things doesn't change anything.
