What I resist, persists. So I actually obey resistance by doing the thing I resist. When I don’t “feel like “ emptying the trash, writing, communicating, paying bills and the like, I override the resistance. What’s more, I find it enjoyable to do the thing that 2 seconds ago I didn’t want to do. It proves to me it’s my thoughts that need to change.

Well done for managing to override resistance on all those daily things. I do an exercise where I write out my fears and I have learnt that I can disregard anything that fear says.

"Susan had a thought. It might not be a good one." Lol - yes, Karen relates! A friend of mine texted me a screen shot yesterday from an app that said "we have over 60,000 thoughts a day; 85% of those thoughts are negative". Whew.

Exactly! It's kind of a heavy thought in itself. My anxiety brain throws up so much crazy crap in a day. I have to actively ask myself if a thought is reasonable.

Yep. My anxiety brain does the same. Apparently, it's a similar statistic with our worries. I can't remember if it's 80% or 85% of them, but which ever number it is, they don't happen. So much wasted energy!
