Generalized Anxiety Disorder

Thanks buddy

Yep...those traits can set us up for trouble, definitely!

Working the Moodgym will help you continue to learn about yourself...strengths...as well as areas that need work.

You will reach your recovery goals with time and continued effort. You are doing great, keep it up!

Actually I am living in a foreign country. In how much time this cycle can be broken. This is effecting my job also. I have also started to make habit of meditation. I do 10 minutes a day.

Which therapy worksheets are you talking about from resources. Can you tell me the location??

I am actually working on moodgym. Whenever I gets time, I work on it. Can you tell me how much time it would take to completely get out of these negative thoughts. And I am doing meditation also for 15 minutes

Ok, but some things are little bit tough like you have to talk some person to get his review about the depressing situation you have dealt in a week. But if you didn't undergo with it in a week, then what??

Just make the time when you can...

...and for scenarios that aren't applicable at the current time...try to draw from past experiences that have challenged you.

I learned some new things. I always had fears of rejection and getting approval. On Friday this weekend on my last day in university, everyone was clicking pictures and I was sitting alone. I was feeling getting rejected. This is my main issue.

You said,

"I learned some new things. I always had fears of rejection and getting approval. On Friday this weekend on my last day in university, everyone was clicking pictures and I was sitting alone. I was feeling getting rejected. This is my main issue."

And

"It makes me sometimes feel that I will be rejected by my wife also. I have shyness issue from my school days.And I am studying at foreign university"

I was just going through some family history and was thinking about my dad, and was thinking, "He was not very good socially" and I also realized that this also applied to me, especially when I was going through my college age years, nor before that, nor after.

So, one thing, when I was going through those years, I was not as fully aware of family history as I am now. I did not fully realize I was going through the same tough situation that my dad had gone through when he was college age, and before and after that.

Did not fully realize that I had inherited poor social skills, partly from my dad and some from my mother, whose mother had bipolar. So I got poor social skills from both sides of the family.

However, I should have been impressing upon myself, I have other skills. That in a social situation I was lacking. But in some other areas, I did OK.

As far as females, that was another area my dad did poorly in. And likewise, I acquired that trait, also. But again, there were other areas that I did, OK, but just not with females.

I realize, that being good with females and social skills is very important. But sometimes we have to accept who we are and reality. It's all part of growing up, of facing reality, of life. Some of it we aren't going to like.

Walt Disney of Disneyland in California, use to have a sign on his desk on his TV show which said, "Be yourself." He probably had a hard time as a sensitive sort as a kid, and didn't fully realize, you don't have to be like every body else.

So, you know, you might not fit in. I didn't in a lot of ways. But there were other things I could do well. I just had to learn to concentrate on those, and maybe try to improve in other areas, and accept who I was.
