Dear ###, I worry and worry and worry too. I have been diagnosed with anxiety disorder. Every day is a struggle so I can really relate to you. The thing is, you think if you worry, you can control or even change the situation. You are also afraid that if you do stop worrying, something bad will happen. It is what I call "magical thinking." It's like "Step on the crack, break your grandmother's back." It's silly, it's superstitious and it is not true, yet people like you and I will avoid stepping on any cracks anyway. Deal -- You pray for me on this topic and I will pray for you. Also, you might try the following suggestion: Allow yourself like 15 minutes a day to worry about anything and everything. Then mentally picture a box, your worry box, and put the worries in there and lock up the box for the day. Definitely worth a try. God bless you and keep you and hold you in His loving arms. From: ###
