I had a few better moments this morning when I was trying to stay in peace. It is a very hard habit to break.
that sounds like progress - well done
It happens very quickly and automatically.
oh yes years of programming from others and ourselves is hard to stop - but you can do it
Distraction helps but it helped today to push the worry to its worst possible conclusion then it seemed clear that that would never happen.

My T used to say - whats the worst that could happen? and i would talk it through and often then the worry would seem ridiculous or at least very unlikely
At times - in my head i will say STOP!!!! when the negative ninja's get going (thats what my neice calls negative thoughts - negative ninjas - love it :-) ))
i used to tell my self that the negative thoughts were just facts - me facing reality - but they are not - mostly they are self destructive and self limiting and we (yes me too!) can make them go away if we keep at it - good luck
