Overthinking worrier?

Not even sure worry is considered an emotion, but I figure this was the place to ask. How does one deal with worry and overthinking, especially when it brings up physical anxious feelings?

I mean, in my current predicament ( here ) I can't stop overthinking how badly things can go, and it makes me so anxious. What worries me is that its such a small thing others can deal with, meanwhile I'm this close to a panic meltdown.

Other members who have posted in my other thread say to stop worrying, take it one day at a time, and it is reassuring, but how does one do that effectively?

I'm really new here, so others may have better suggestions, but what I've been trying is guided meditation. I found lots of free podcasts on iTunes for meditating and they're helping a lot, especially at bedtime.

(I feel bad for you, please don't take this the wrong way)

Yes! Someone else who has the exact same problem I do!
I suffer from the same symptoms, I've started meditating but am having trouble and may have to take a class/find a guide.

My worrying destroys many parts of my lives, it is also a big contributor to why I can't have a relationship. You made me think about the relationship issue in a different way. I can never get a relationship started, and now you've helped me to realize that even if I did get one started it would burn and crash because a relationship brings a lot of things for me to worry about. Even things that are just fictional and created in my head.

Gotta love Bi-Polar 2, I swear I never realized how much easier the depression was compared to all out Bi-Polar. I'm okay and I hate to say it but I had a lot of suicidal thoughts last night, what made it even worse is that I had no one to talk to or call. I had to fight it myself and it almost tore me apart. It was one of the worst nights I've had in a while.

I'm depressed today, but not feeling as bad.

Sorry, didn't mean to take over your thread.
I just got a glimpse into myself and I hope you do too.

Sorry I have nothing else to add to this other than letting you
know that you aren't the only person that deals with more than just basic worry. Do you feel like you have to through up too? The worry tied to the anxiety makes me have to go to the bathroom a lot before I can leave my house sometimes. It's also made it difficult for me to see my friends.

It's not as bad as it could be RoamingMind. I mean, right now I have finals so I'm worried about that. But, it's a worry I'm familiar with, so I'm more ok with it. Definitely though, if I didn't have finals to slightly distract me, I would be a complete wreck over this situation. I would feel nauseous and anxious every morning until it were resolved.

What makes it worse is when people start lamenting on the negatives. What if she's lying? What if she wasn't in your life? What if she rejects the letter? Because I'm such a pessimist, of course I would focus on the negatives, especially if people keep mentioning them.

That's why I need people to tell me about the positives in a situation. To reassure me that everything's going to be alright. But it puts a strain on my relationships if I keep asking people over and over.

And don't worry, I take no offense to your post. It's nice to see someone feel similar to me
