Anxiety LOVES to predict the future. It senses your fear around something uncomfortable or uncertain and tries to reassure you by being a FORTUNE TELLER! Although it seems helpful at first, anxiety’s ability to predict the future is quickly exposed. It’s an IMPOSTER! Anxiety cannot accurately state facts. It’s predictions are usually attached to a negative outcome! A catastrophe! Here are a few tips: Ask: What is the evidence that makes this prediction true? Ask: What’...s my track record in similar situations? Consider equally possible outcomes and write out three of them. This helps you shift perspective from one negative outcome and consider others. When you realize anxiety is trying be a fortune teller, call it out, consider the evidence and come up with a few other possible outcomes. Don’t get fooled by the Fortune Teller! #anxiety #anxietyawareness #anxietysupport #mentalhealthawareness #mentalhealthmatters #kamloops #kamloopscounsellor #kamloopsmatters #kamloopsparents #teenmentalhealth #teenmentalhealthawareness #youthmentalhealth #youthempowerment See more
