Here are links to some articles from PsychCentral's archives related to the topic of worry. Perhaps they may be of some help:

I think that that ghost is mostly something that might be able to be overcome with calling in something that you enjoy immensely when you are worried. (I don't have a particular favorite hobby but I enjoy planning things for my Law of Attraction that I'm not doing as something for 7 days which is normally what it is for. I'm trying to do it more as a life goal).

When I say that, I think that your hobby can take place of your thinking for a while and banish it.

I've also heard that magnesium helps with anxiety.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
