Exploring your Worries

Anxiety usually causes individuals to think the worst outcome is destined to happen. This can make it hard to think objectively or problem-solve effectively. 

When experiencing such thoughts, it's essential to take a step back, breathe deeply, and try to evaluate the situation objectively. When you are anxious about something, try and think about the most likely scenario. Intentionally focus your thoughts on what is most likely to happen, not everything that could happen. 

Our anxiety worksheet can help you gain perspective and focus on the most likely outcomes. By taking control of one's thoughts, it's possible to reduce the impact of anxiety and maintain a healthy and balanced mindset.
