Aah..
I’ve had a lot of therapy over the years. Not all of it was helpful, but I did learn some important stuff.
When I know that I have no control, I can let go of anxiety. Which doesn’t mean I’m not at least a bit nervous in some situations… I had surgery for a benign brain tumour years ago. I bought lovely books for each of my kids & wrote loving, encouraging messages in each. And hoped for the best. (It turned out well.)
It’s when I think I can/could or should be able to do something that I get anxious. “Should” Is a terrible word.
