How To Stop Worrying
mmm How to stop worrying now that is a question. It can't be answered simply but there is definitely some logic that
we can apply to it. Worrying is something we tend to do in general,
whether it is about our kids, our job, exams etc. There is always something teetering on the edge to make you
worry. After all if we didn't worry we wouldn't be human right.
The problem being however that if we worry too much, then it tends to have a
negative impact and that is all we ever seem to do is worry instead. So let me give you some examples of
how to stop worrying and see if they help.
I am a big animal lover and I know some of you guys
probably aren't but instead of thinking about the cat, apply this to
something that you love or care for instead. So here it is
My cat beaux came into the house one day, acting very strange,
jumping around everywhere and he had some fur missing. No big deal I hear you say. But then he went missing for
four days. Was I worried YES, but I continued to get on with things and keep my mind completely
occupied.
I obviously went out looking for him a couple of times a day,
calling him as you do. Nothing - did I worry yes - but I kept myself busy again thinking it is
okay remain positive he will be back. Then one evening I called him and he called back to me!!!
Great he was back. He seemed okay but his fur was still missing.
I took him to the vets who gave him a once over and noticed
that he had a lump in his abdomen. Great did I worry well yes of course. The next thing was for
him to have an xray - the xray showed that he had a large lump attached to his intestines.

The vet operated with some dangers involved and removed part of his
intestines and sowed them back up. Well the moral to the story is that I remained positive that he
would be okay - Is he okay YES he is full of life and to be honest if he hadn't of gone missing we
would never had noticed the tumour. So sometimes BLESSINGS come in
disguise.
I refer to the worrying with what I call "what
if's". Because the worry comes in and before you know it - it has expanded into something completely
dramatic by your own doing. Let me explain with Beaux in mind
- What if - he doesn't come back
- What if - I can't find him
- What if - I go out and he comes back
injured
- What if - the surgery goes wrong will I see him
again
- What if - he doesn't recover well and is in
pain
Do you see what happens when you start worrying - yep you
guess it - it spirals out of control before you know it. Now let me give you the opposite scenario of how to stop
worrying
- Blimey - Beaux is missing but that is okay it is usual
for cats and he will be back soon.
- He is still missing but it has only been 4 days he will
come back very soon.
- Yes Mrs Vet I trust my cat in your hands and that the
best decision is to operate and I will help him recover.
- Beaux will be back up on his feet in no
time.
If you concentrate on the positives then nothing
spirals out of control. When you concentrate on the negatives they will continue to spiral out of
control.
I hope I have managed to get the message across in a simple
way but my message always is " If you can stay positive and stop the what if's from happening then you
will be far better off". Sounds easy I know and it is not and it takes time to condition yourself in order
to do this.
But believe me worrying gets us nowhere. If you would like
