When things go good, good weekend, feeling happy and relaxed... Do you ever wonder like ok when/what will be the bad thing to happen? Like I can't have a good long weekend without something bad going to happen? Does this make sense?

I haven't had a good long weekend like this in a long time. What's the cost? What's going to happen?

Thanks God for this wonderful weekend and so much more. I hope I can handle whatever this week throws my way.
Hugs from:

Thanks for this!

youre having a perfectly normal thought. it is the nature of worry that something is going to go wrong. one way to deal with this is to use mindfulness. let the thoughts drift thru your mind like clouds. to not judge them, or attach any meaning to them. they are nothing more than thoughts. there is no reason to get emotional about them. just let them pass on thru. take care.

But things do go wrong. And I'm back to panic and not thinking clearly. And can't do this attitude. And panic ... When really nothing is all that wrong. There is no logic to this.

I think a HECK of a lot of people can relate to this, ... when you're so used to ****, it's hard to fathom when something good should arise.

If something happens, what is the worst possible outcome? I do this type of exercise and imagine all sorts of things that could happen in the worst way. Then I realize, well, what are the chances of that? And I think how silly that is, and feel calmer.

My t says my stress has caused me to have paranoia. I worry about everything and anything and am unable to live a real life because of fear. the worst possible outcome is my expectation, work is the worst, as I do not set the expectation or time frame to complete. the fear of failure or job loss is pushing me to my limit. I am struggling but I truly wish you better..
