I have difficulty when I have something "ahead" of me. Such as an appointment or a social event like a wedding or something big like that. I have a pattern of worrying about it until I am almost physically ill. I worry about being late, screwing up the date or time, what to wear, etc. etc. etc. It is an old pattern with me and I would really like to change it. It causes such anxiety that until I am past the "thing" whatever it is, I cannot focus on anything else. This is probably sounding very strange but this is my pattern and I am realizing it is probably anxiety but what can I do differently? Thanks for your help.
