Obsessive thoughts can be a sign of a general increased level of anxiety, which is also worth taking under control.
However, to begin with, you can overcome this unpleasant symptom.
Anxious thoughts can make life very difficult and weaken the nervous system.
What is a simple way to help take control of the problem?
First, you need to get into the good habit of always carrying at least a small notebook with you so that it is always at hand.
During the day, you need to record every unpleasant thought. You just need to write it down.
At the end of the day, analyze them.
In one column you can write down the disturbing thought again, and in the second one you can evaluate whether it had any grounds. If the reasons for worrying are objective, then you should think about how to behave so that stress does not appear.
If there were no objective grounds, then you will simply understand how sometimes people tend to exaggerate.
Experts note that this method seems extremely simple, but do not underestimate its effectiveness: after just a few days of regular practice, you will notice significant results.
