Anxiety, OCD, & Scrupulosity
DISCOVER THE CONFIDENCE WITHIN
Your mind telegraphs worry and danger.
It does not give you a moment of rest.
You are preoccupied by thoughts of criticism, doubt, worry, and fear.
You screen your thoughts and edit your words before you speak.
An unending chain of “what if’s” floods your mind.
You long for peace of mind.
You try to keep the fear and worry under control.
You stay busy with errands, meetings, and favors.
You avoid places that cause anxiety.
You go the extra mile to prevent bad things from happening.
You try not to think bad thoughts.
All this activity is ineffective and draining.
It’s just easier to stay home.
Last month, your anxiety peaked.
You felt like you were dying.
Your heart raced, vision narrowed, and body trembled.
You never want to go through that again!
These days you stay home to avoid feeling helpless in public.
Your world had become quite small.
Free of excessive worry, you can meet each day with confidence.
