Knowing You’re Not Alone

Anxiety is something a lot of people deal with. It means sometimes you feel scared or worried, even when everything is okay. It’s normal and happens to many people. This doesn’t mean there’s something wrong with you. It’s just your body being extra careful, sometimes more than it needs to be.

How Positive Thinking Can Help

One good way to deal with anxiety is to try and think about the good things instead of the bad. When we’re anxious, we often think about what could go wrong. But, if we try to focus on the good stuff, it can make us feel better.

 Simple Positive Things to Tell Yourself

Here are some easy positive things you can say to yourself that might help:

Anxiety is tricking me: This means sometimes anxiety makes you scared when you don’t need to be.

I’m not sick, just anxious: Feeling anxious doesn’t mean you’re ill.

I’m okay, really: Even when you’re anxious, you’re actually okay.

It’s just my thoughts that are scary: Sometimes, your own thoughts make you anxious, not what’s happening around you.

Anxiety is just feelings, not reality: Remember, anxiety is about how you feel, not what is true.

Keeping Positive Reminders Close

It helps to keep these positive sayings where you can see them often, like on your fridge or next to your bed. Reading them every day, or when you feel anxious, can help change how you think and feel about things over time.

Wrapping Up

Remembering and repeating these positive things can help you focus less on anxiety and more on feeling okay. It’s a small step, but it can make a big difference in how you see things and feel.
