What actions can you take to stop these negative thoughts from invading your mind?

How about trying something like -

* Closing your eyes and telling yourself to STOP.

OR

* Picture a red stop sign and focus on the word STOP.

OR

* Write out your thoughts, the way you do here. Post them, scribble them onto a piece of paper, or keep a journal. It's a great way to release your anxieties. Just be sure not to leave anything lying around for your H to accidentally come across.

Glad you're feeling better today. \:\)
