Worry won't stop

Sorry to bother everyone again. I wrote earlier about anxiety about moving. Well, fortunately, many of the necessary aspects of selling house, etc., are going along well. But now I am starting to feel worried about everything. I am trying to use my skills, but I feel like I am playing "whack-a-mole" with them.
I wrote on the Depression board about worrying about driving 4 days with our cat. We were going to fly but it didn't work out. But now it seems like every little thing is cause for worry for me. I feel like I should be doing better, be calmer -- but I'm not.
Thanks for listening!

Hey you! Me again. ;-)

Take little 5 minute breaks and give yourself a chance to breathe. You're in the machine now, and the more details you try to manage, the more stressed you're going to become. Throw a little stress over to your partner and keep hugging your cat.

One day soon all the stress and work will be over, and you'll be enjoying a glass of wine while watching a new sunset.

And it will be glorious.

Thank you all so much for your encouragement and ideas.

Yes, I am trying now to "share" some of the stress (and more of the preparations). I found that it helps if I can just say "I am so stressed right now and need some help!" Fortunately, my hubby is wonderful and can usually help me deal with it.

I love the idea, Larry, that the "what if" could be better than I imagine. What a great thought. I wonder why my mind always goes the other direction. I remember someone famous , (can't remember who), said "my mind is like a dark alley -- I don't want to go there alone".

Hope
