Worrying - any tips on how to calm yourself

Sorry, I meant ‘comedy’ 🙄😀

Sex. It works every time. I'm feeling very calm at the moment.

To Much Information.

*Too much even. 😁

I will also be 70 this year. My husband of 34 years decided he wanted a divorce last year. Since then I’ve turned into this trembling, tearful, pathetic woman. I feel sick and anxious all the time. Whenever I look at my emails I’m expecting yet another solicitor’s letter to deal with….

It’s horrible. I find myself wishing I had an ‘off’ switch so I don’t have to deal with it all.

I’m reading the helpful suggestions from everybody.

Thanks for the post.

Can you actually solve any of the problems you worry about?

If you can, then doing so is the place to start with any problem that can be solved.

If you cannot see a solution to a problem yourself, perhaps someone else can, but you need to be able to discuss your worry honestly to get anywhere.

For the kind of worries we cannot solve, we really only can try to teach ourselves not to bother about them. This is not easy, but can be done, either with the help of professional counselling or by telling oneself to stop worrying about something one has no control over.

Can anyone advise how to remove a post please Thank you

I find music and deep breathing help to relax me, followed by a nice cuppa and a good book or uplifting film.
