8 Questions That’ll Help Calm You When You’re Anxious!Worries and stressful thoughts attack each of us by surprise, and it is not easy for everyone to deal with them; they can paralyze us and prevent us from acting, which in most cases leads us to an even worse situation than we feared. However, there are a number of psychologists recommended questions that you can ask yourself in the event of worry whose answers will help to reassure you. So the next time you are too stressed out about something, try asking yourself the following 8 questions, answer them honestly and let the answers you think of come free you and relax your worries 1. "What evidence do I have that my fear will materialize?"2.. "What are the best, worst, and most realistic scenarios that can play out?"3. "Based on past experience, how will I cope with this frightening situation in the end?"If you become anxious every day on your way to work, or whenever you need to speak to an audience, think about the way you have dealt with this problem before. "You're still here, safe and sound, right? That means you've survived the same scary situation many times before and you'll be able to deal with it again," says Dr. DePompo. "Anxious people filter out all the times they have coped and handled things well." That's why recalling past successes can really help. So try to remember consciously the previous experience that relates to the current stressful situation, and let your experience assure you that everything will be all right. 4. "Am I worrying just to worry?5. "Is my health actually in danger?"6. "Am I safe?"7. "Why do I feel so anxious?"8. "What is the story I create for myself?" |
