What are some strategies you’ve used to overcome worry? Were these helpful or not? Explain.
-
I continue to work on spending time alone with God to submit my worries as my first thought and action. This exercise has improved over the years. However, I have moments when focusing on my concerns is easier.
-
When I am worrying, I usually do make it a matter of prayer. I also try to read about the subject at hand and try to do something about the issue. Otherwise, I resort to diversion of my attention, by working as an escape, just trying to keep my mind occupied. Sometimes it might be an unhealthy diversion, but it helps me to get it off my mind.
-
I recite Psalm 23 and the Lord’s Prayer. They are helpful to me even if I need to recite them a few times.
-
Depend upon God. Went to a group therapy. Talk with my friends.
-
I’ve done lists. Where I write down all my worries and if there is anything I can actually do about them. If not, I write “why are you worrying about this then cause this is a God worry.” It actually helps me since I do better with visual things.
