There is this exercise my therapist is having me do where I designate a time slot during the day were I allow myself to worry full on, negative thoughts and everything. Outside of that, I am to try and postpone my worrying much the same way I postpone work and other things.
Other than I think joining social clubs or groups that share similar interests might help, although that's too much for me, activates my anxiety like that *snap*.
What are your hobbies? Says you like games on your profile. Any favorites?
Oh boy do I know how refreshing it is to have a good cry at the end of a stressful day! I will admit though, I might indulge in my negative thoughts a bit too much, so I will try postponing it like you suggest.
I play a variety of games, since it's a great way to distract myself from reality and actually have fun for a bit. Recently, I've been playing a lot of CIV V. My favorite will always be World of Warcraft, though. Other than that, I enjoy writing.
Thank you for talking to me, it really helps. And of course, thank you for the advice!
