Be nervous in general. How to get rid of anxiety? Live in peace and harmony with yourself

Hello friends.

Today you will learn how to stop worrying and also overthinking yourself. I have already written about how the tips from that article will help you not only understand how not to be nervous, but also how to finally not worry about anything. But today, in new article, I will consider the experience from the point of view of overthinking myself. By understanding how to put this mechanism of your psyche under control, you can greatly improve your life and not worry about trifles.

Natural and inflated experiences

In fact, we tend to worry. After all, we are not robots, but living people.

Difficulties and troubles often occur in a person's life.

And when faced with troubles, we begin to worry.

To worry means to protect yourself from troubles. This turns on the instinct of self-preservation, which we need, without it we would simply die. Experience is a reaction of the psyche when the instinct of self-preservation is triggered.

Therefore, it is natural when a mother fears for her child if he does not return home late. The husband begins to worry about his wife when she gives birth, and it is difficult for a woman not to worry during pregnancy. We worry before an important meeting, a date, about work, when we are fired. We fear for our lives when we are threatened. These are all examples of natural experiences and there is no need to get rid of them.

If a person simply experienced these natural feelings, then nothing terrible would happen. But it's not that simple.

After all, what often happens next. The person begins to beat himself up. He begins not only to worry, but to imagine unpleasant pictures of events that have not yet come true or events that have already happened, about which he has no information. That is, he does not yet know what will happen or has already happened, but he begins to imagine that something bad has happened, everything is bad and everything like that.

Mostly this happens in a negative way.

All. There is an uncontrollable flurry of emotions that lead to problems, take away our health, and do not allow us to take a sober look at the situation.

Why is this happening?

The egoistic mechanism of our psyche-ego is to blame. she is constantly afraid of something, feels sorry for herself, wants everything to always be good and only as she needs it. It's just how it's designed.


The ego psyche is also afraid to experience unpleasant emotions, as a result we are simply afraid of the negative. The so-called fear of fear arises.

For example, a mother, realizing that she is hurt by the fact that her son has not returned, begins to fear not only these circumstances, but also fear itself. “How can I bear this, I’ll feel really bad, I’ll be very worried.”. Instead of acting calmly, she begins to become hysterical, lose her head, and blame someone for her troubles without understanding the circumstances. The ego-psyche tends to imagine everything negatively. It's built that way. All sorts of fears are constantly sitting inside us, which come out at the first opportunity.

And this process is dragging on.

And if you worry too often and for a long time, then the body will work for wear and tear.

Natural experiences are not very powerful and usually do not last long, so there is little harm from them. But when we start to worry, stressing ourselves out, the emotions will be stronger and more energy-consuming. If we worry for a long time, we will definitely get sick. And also the psyche will become weaker. With new, even trivial, troubles, we will begin to worry again. It turns out vicious circle from which there seems to be no way out.

What to do? But there is a way out.

You just need to stop the egoistic mechanism of the psyche, which triggers self-inflation. A wise, philosophical attitude towards life, as well as awareness in relation to the uncontrollable emotions of experience, will help us with this.

Be wise

In order for your life to become much better and to stop worrying and inflating your emotions, you need to treat it correctly and be wise.

There are wise, well-known guidelines. And there is no need to treat them with disdain. They really help a lot.

A correct worldview seems to calm the ego psyche, puts it in its place, and we actually begin to worry less. Thanks to them, ours seems to wake up and spread its wings. You probably felt this yourself when you unconsciously followed these guidelines, when you had a so-called uplift in spirit, all the negativity went away, and your vital energy increased. At such moments, you just want to enjoy life, create, do the right, non-selfish actions.

This happens because the soul, where beautiful feelings reside, has suppressed and eclipsed the egoistic whims of the ego.

The ego, having subsided, stops generating negative emotions, we stop beating ourselves up. The energy that was previously spent on bad emotions is freed, and now it can be directed to the right actions. Consciousness is cleared, we begin to think soberly. You see how everything is interconnected. Do you get the point?

These are the settings:

A happy person is not the one who only has good events in his life, but the one who has the right attitude towards everything that happens to him.

Accept any event in your life calmly and with dignity. If trouble or trouble happens, then it’s necessary. Such is fate. This means life wants to show you something, teach you.

Everything in life cannot be good; there will be difficulties and failures.

Difficulties build character and make you stronger.

After a bad streak in life, definitely white will do. If you don't accept hard times in your life and get upset, then the bad streak will last longer.

Also accept any feeling within yourself, even if they are unpleasant. Don't be afraid of your fears. Learn to look at them without running away from them.

And other wise attitudes that I often talk about on this blog.


But for some reason everyone knows these sayings, but as soon as problems fall on a person, he forgets about them and again makes mistakes for which he has to pay.

The thing is that a person usually has them simply in his mind. But you just need to feel them, understand the deep meaning. Only then will they remain in the subconscious and at a difficult moment they will come out and save the situation.

To do this, close your eyes and slowly speak these settings. Feel them with your soul, understand the inner meaning.

Well, in order to finally get rid of the wounded experiences, you need to learn to control them. What are we going to do now?

How can we not worry about anything with the help of mindfulness?

So, to get rid of twisted thoughts and worry less, you need to turn on.

But first of all, stop fighting with yourself, with those experiences that have washed over you. Fighting is a form of cooperation that leads to unnecessary tension, and therefore to further big problems, both physically and emotionally. Our task, on the contrary, is to calm down. To do this, do not fight your experiences, but rather allow them to be.

It is human nature to do the opposite. He tries with all his might to get rid of unpleasant feelings and begins to fight them. This even happens unconsciously, automatically, one might say, without the will of a person. As I already said, the uncontrolled work of our psyche with its own selfish motives is to blame. She tends to be afraid, she wants everything to always be good and pleasant. She can't stand bad feelings and tries to hide from them. This is expressed by the fact that a person, struggling with fear during an experience, drives it deep into himself. That is, it displaces it from the surface consciousness, where the unconscious person is usually located, deeper into the subconscious. But fear has not really gone away; it is doing its destructive work. And from the depths of consciousness he throws at us terrible pictures of events that have not yet come true. This is one of the reasons why a person begins to overthink himself.

All this work of suppressing unpleasant feelings, the development of tension and, as a result, a flurry of new, already wound up experiences, goes differently for everyone. Someone is hysterical, another, on the contrary, falls into a stupor, a third simply does not understand what he is doing. But everyone’s consciousness narrows in the same way, their heads become clouded, and an uncontrollable flurry of twisted emotions is generated.


To prevent this from happening, I repeat, you need to stop and stop the internal struggle.

If you follow wise guidelines, you will calmly accept not only any circumstance in your life, but also any feeling within yourself. The ability to endure within oneself any, even the most unpleasant, feelings and emotions characterizes the degree of maturity and wisdom of a person.

Let the experiences be. Set them free. Let there be fear inside you. You humbly understand what you are experiencing, because you are a person with living feelings. Continuing our example, the mother understands that she is worried about her son, she comes to terms with it.

Then just close your eyes, turn your attention inside yourself, see what the feelings and experiences do to the body. You may feel a chill in your stomach, a lump somewhere inside, or maybe you will even understand why they say “the soul has sunk into your heels.”

Thus, you allow the body to naturally experience, do not interfere with it, allow it to do what is natural to it. And then the body, seeing that it is not being disturbed, worries and somehow defuses the internal fears of the experience. You will also be able to look at the fears themselves from the outside. Create distance between yourself and your unpleasant feelings. And what will happen next when you calmly let your body worry and look at the feelings from the outside. The experiences will either decrease or even disappear completely. There will definitely be no more stressful experiences.

Now the mother, from our example, will be able to calmly assess the situation, call someone, find out something, that is, she will really be able to find her son, or wait humbly without hysterics.

If you don't manage to do it all the first time, don't despair, try again. The power of your awareness is, of course, still weak to stop the flow of uncontrollable emotions the first time.

If, nevertheless, the ego took over, began to throw unpleasant pictures at you, and you began to cheat, you just need to catch yourself in the fact that you have lost awareness. And then close your eyes and repeat everything again.

I think you will succeed.

By getting rid of unnecessary worries, you will free up a lot of energy and be able to direct it in the right direction. Act, search, undertake something, or humbly wait. The main thing is that now you will have a clear consciousness, even if natural experiences remain. But there won’t be any more screwed-up ones, which create problems.

If you always do this when you are worried, you will see how much your life has begun to change in better side. And the mother from our example, after calming down, suddenly hears a bell, runs to open the door and sees her beloved son safe and sound.

All because the law worked:

“Think good things and good things will happen.”

How can we think about good things when we are bombarded with uncontrollable, overwhelming experiences? Only awareness can stop them, and then we will feel the good feelings of our soul. After all, that’s where they live. And this is the only way this law will work. Do you understand?

I think you understand how to finally stop worrying, now you can start living life to the fullest a happy and healthy person without stressful experiences.

And at the end of the article I want to add that I myself often used to worry about everything and could not stop stressing myself out.

I understand those people who are looking for an answer to this question.

I was too sensitive and couldn't handle stress. I couldn't help but worry about little things.

All these experiences were very exhausting and did not allow me to live normal life. They took away strength and undermined health. Later, I began to understand the reasons for such a painful mode of mental reaction, and now I am sharing with you the knowledge I have gained.

My recipe is this:

You can’t just stop worrying in an instant. You need to gradually increase your fortitude, become stronger morally, mentally, be wise and mature, conscious person, learn to control your emotions.

This is what I told you about today. And, you can read it separately by following the link.

That's all for today.

Good luck to you.

How to stop being nervous - this is a question many people ask themselves when they are in a dead end situation. After all, it is anxiety that prevents us from looking at the problem sensibly, weighing the pros and cons and finding a reasonable way out of the current situation.

I’ll tell you a secret: there is nothing supernatural or complicated in what I want to tell you today. But this does not mean that everything I share with you does not work, on the contrary.

If you make some efforts, if you listen to my recommendations, then you will definitely be able to cope with anxiety, stop being nervous and be able to remain calm in any, even hopeless, situations. Interesting?

The reasons for our unrest

Before I tell you about how to stop being nervous and become calm, I want to touch on the topic of the reasons for our worries. Even if you think that this is all unimportant, you are very mistaken, because it is not the condition itself that needs to be overcome, but its causes.

Do you know why we get nervous? Yes, because we try our best to think about the past and the future, and do not live in today.

Reason #1

The first reason that causes our anxiety is that we are in a hurry to live.

Yes, yes. We are constantly trying to live in a segment of the future (or rather in the infinity of the future), without possessing the knowledge that we will learn later. We imagine an ideal picture of the future (only this and no other), not paying attention to what is happening to us now.

It seems to us that tomorrow will come that very happy day, but for some reason it does not come. At first, we are in a hurry to grow up so we can stop going to school every day, because we think that all the best things will happen to us after graduating from university. The next planned and expected period is marriage, then the purchase of a car, housing, taking off career ladder etc.

Let me give you an example of a situation from my life that almost made me worry. There is some event that may happen to me next year. In order for it to take place, you must plan to finance it this year or pay for everything out of your own pocket. Although there are still 2 months left until the end of the year, planning has already been suspended. When I learned about this, to be honest, I was almost upset and didn’t start to worry. And then I thought, do I know where I will be in six months, in what country, in what job? Will I need all this then? And where is the guarantee that by entering an event into the “plan”, I will receive money to pay for it?

Have similar situations happened to you? I think they happen every day. We worry about what decision we will need to make next Thursday, what the dollar exchange rate will be next year, where we will go on vacation in the summer. Why?

I really like one joke: “My childhood dream has come true - I’ve grown up and I no longer have to get up for school at 8:30. Now I get up for work at 6:20.” It’s the same with us: we don’t appreciate what is, but constantly worry about what will happen (or won’t happen).

Reason #2

Second important reason our anxiety is our past.

We constantly think about how we could change our past and worry about it. Oh, why didn't I do this earlier...

Think about it, is there any point in all this? After all, the past cannot be changed! This has all already happened. It just needs to be accepted.

Why do we worry, what pushes us to experience this emotion? Most often, our anxiety is caused by fear. Fear of not doing something, fear that events will not go the way we imagined them. Fear is the root cause of anxiety. Well, anxiety makes us agitated and nervous and can even lead to the development of... Can a person, being in such a state, think sensibly, solve problems, act for his own good? Hardly.

What is the conclusion? You need to learn to live in the present moment! Don't try to peer into the future or invent a time machine to change the past.

Canadian physician, medical historian and philosopher William Osler once said wonderful words:

Our main task is not to look into the foggy distance of the future, but to act now, in the direction that we can see

What else can you add to these golden words?

How to stop being nervous over trifles?

Fence off the past and the future with iron doors. Live in today's sealed compartments.

Don't think that I'm telling you not to do anything, under any circumstances. It’s just that if you worry about everything that will happen to us in a week, month or even a year, then you simply may not have time to prepare for it.

I myself very often live by the principle: “You need to solve problems as they arise.” If a problem is only visible somewhere on the horizon and does not affect me, then it is stupid to worry about what if it will bypass me?

One of my friends jokingly told me this formula for solving life’s problems:

50% of problems are solved on their own, 25% are not solved at all, so is it worth worrying about the remaining 25%?

Yes, this is a joke, but if you approach your life from a similar position, then there will be much less worry, right?

Did you know that stress and constant worry can lead to many serious diseases - hypertension, heart attack, stroke, diabetes mellitus, psoriasis and many others? In pursuit of something ghostly, you can lose not only your health, but also your life! Stress is a common cause of many mental disorders, including . So if you want to be mentally and somatically healthy person, do not neglect these simple recommendations.

3 simple steps to help you stop stressing about everything

Get rid of worries in problematic situations quite simple. The most important thing is to focus your energy not on worrying, but on solving the situation. I’ll share with you one trick that works.

How to stop being nervous about anything? It's very simple, you just need to do 3 simple steps towards solving the problem:

  • Step 1. The first thing you need to do if you are feeling anxious is to imagine the worst that could happen if you are unable to solve the problem.
  • Step 2: Once you've imagined the worst that could happen, accept it as if it had already happened.
  • Step 3: Once you've accepted the worst-case scenario, calmly think through what you can do to improve the situation.

As a rule, we worry precisely because we are afraid that something will go wrong, that the situation will reach a dead end. Okay, so even if that's the case. Even if everything goes for the worst, so what? Is it really worth your worries?

Believe me, after you look danger in the eye, imagine the worst, you will feel much easier and calmer. After all, we worry precisely because emotions prevail over reasonable arguments. And if the outcome of the situation is already known (everything happened), then there will be much less worry. It will be possible to move on to the next important step - to solving the situation, improving the worst case scenario.

Another working way to stop being nervous and worried

I want to give you one more piece of advice on how to calm down and quickly stop being nervous at work, at home or in any other situation. To do this, you need to follow a certain algorithm.

If you're feeling overwhelmed with anxiety, ask yourself 4 simple questions:

  1. What is bothering me at the moment?
  2. What can I do? (What options might there be?)
  3. What am I going to do now to solve this problem?
  4. When do I intend to start taking the intended actions?

If possible, it is best to write or type the answers to all of these questions. Firstly, this way you can see the situation and ways out of it more fully, instead of experiencing. Secondly, human memory is not perfect; if something goes wrong and you abandon the chosen path to solve the problem, you will still have other options written down on paper (which you may later forget about).

By answering these questions, you will immediately understand the essence of the problem. Moreover, if you go further, you can imagine possible options ways out of the situation, ways to solve the problem and their consequences. You will see what other information you are missing and where to get it. Believe me, it will be much easier for you to decide on a strategy of action.

Believe me, if you write the answers to all these questions, you will quickly stop being nervous, and your thoughts will work in a completely different direction - how to constructively get out of the current situation.

But this is not even the most important thing! The most important thing is to clearly imagine when you need to make a decision, not to rush the situation and, as I wrote above, solve problems as they arise.

If a decision is required from you as soon as possible, then after you have collected all necessary information, immediately begin to act, while trying to discard all worries about the result. You will do everything to improve the worst situation that you have already accepted!

Stay busy all the time and you will have peace of mind!

How to stop worrying and stressing yourself out? Remember, for this you need to act, you need to keep your brain busy with intense work.

Have you noticed such a pattern that worries arise in those moments when we are free, resting, or our brain is not busy with something? difficult work? This is where the excitement comes in.

When Winston Churchill was asked if he was worried about the responsibility that lay with him, he said:

I'm too busy to have time to worry.

And, indeed, there was a war going on, he worked 18 hours a day, and his brain was constantly busy with decisions global problems, and not groundless worries.

Likewise, if you are looking for a way out and don’t know how to stop worrying, make sure that there is not a minute of free time in your life. Work, develop, devote your time to charity, helping others, then you simply won’t have time left for useless and destructive worries!

Do you want to overcome depression, but don't know how? Read.

Don't worry about the past or the future! Think about today, decide only what is needed at the moment. And that doesn't mean you don't care about the future. Quite the opposite: if you live today as well as possible, this will be the key to a good future.

Every morning tell yourself that today you will do everything to make the most of this day, because you only get to live it once! Don’t poison your life with worries about the past that cannot be changed, and don’t waste time in empty dreams about the future, be happy today, right now!

Think about the worst that could happen

If you are worried about a situation, think about what could happen in the worst case scenario? Is it so scary and is it worth worrying about? Be prepared to accept any consequences calmly and look for ways to improve the situation.

Set Clear Goals

It doesn’t hurt to know clearly what you want from life. Then there will be much less cause for concern - after all, a purposeless existence excludes peace of mind.

Learn to solve problems effectively

Start by writing down everything that's bothering you and prioritizing it. Then, next to each problem, write down what you can do, plan when you will do it, or start immediately. Write down all your tasks in a diary and cross them out as soon as you finish - this will save you from anxiety caused by confusion and fear of a mountain of tasks, which in reality always turns out to be not so scary!

Keep yourself busy with something interesting

If you are used to constantly worrying about trifles, try doing something interesting. You need to occupy every minute so that you simply have no time to think about something extraneous - read, dance, take pictures, play games! By focusing on one thing, you won't be able to worry about all that nonsense.

Give a correct assessment of things and situations

Most people pay too much for many things. What seems valuable and important to you now will probably depreciate over time - so is it worth breaking spears and causing a scandal? Stop and think about whether the price you are paying is too high?

Get rid of guilt

If you think that not worrying about anything means being a soulless egoist, then you are wrong! Your worries can lead to neurosis and stomach ulcers, but they cannot help anyone. Do not confuse experience and compassion, the first is a product of fear, the second is a product of love. Compassion means transferring the situation onto yourself and striving to help the victim in accordance with your experience, and not tormenting yourself with empty experiences. So if you can’t help, stop wasting your time. And you should not take responsibility for the actions of other people - they are adults and must make decisions themselves.

Don't create a problem for yourself

Often, in anticipation of some event, we begin to replay it in our minds, imagine the worst and get upset. Ask yourself: what is the likelihood of this actually happening? : relax - what will happen will happen, and if you cannot change a future event in any way, stop worrying about it. For example, you passed the exam and, nervously, are waiting for the result. But you’ve already done everything you could to get a high grade, and worrying won’t change anything.

Get rid of fear
