How do i do things without thinking about them and getting scared?I may want to go to college at some point and I can't do it cause I hesitate and miss my chance . This includes many other situations as well.so how do I not hesitate ?

(((((hugs))))

unfortunately, this is 1 of the absolute worst parts of anxiety, and their's no quick cure for it

it just happens

What thoughts then go through your mind that trigger the hesitation? Fear of being overwhelmed? Fear of not being successful or performing well? Fear of catastrophy?

I honestly think that CBT (Cognative Behavior Therapy) would be helpful. The fears I mentioned above leave me often paralized to act - rather they used to. CBT has been very helpful for me. Even though it has been months since I completed the program I still use the worksheets and tools. In particular, I find the De-Catastrophizing work to be the most helpful.

De-catastrophizing worksheet:

There are great books out there on CBT. My favourite is "CBT for Dummies" which is a collection of some of the best ideas on the subject. It is full of tasks and worksheets and designed to take a 90 day format to complete.
