How to Stop Worrying About Other People So Much

Do you find yourself worrying about other people a lot?

Does bad news from friends or family send you into a spin of anxiety?

Being concerned about what happens to other people is natural and normal - an indicator of your feelings for them.

Of course we should care about the well-being of the people we love and everyone close to us.

This is the basis of family and community life, the 'glue' that holds us all together. It encourages us to look out for and help each other, and so further strengthen the bonds between us.

When bad things happen, worry is natural

And of course when something really difficult happens to people we love, like a serious illness, or a job loss, or a major bereavement, or some other painful event, we are going to focus on the person concerned much more than usual.

We will talk about them, visit them, try to find ways to help and generally spend considerable time and energy devoting ourselves to their trouble, sometimes at considerable cost to ourselves.

This is a good thing.

When worry goes too far

Concern for other people can sometimes tip over into over-worrying. This can happen when your emotional responses, your own feelings, hijack your natural urge to protect those you care about and actually swamp you.

Instead of focusing on actual, practical concerns, you get swept up in a tide of anxiety, imagining all sorts of "what if's?" that help neither you nor the person you are worrying about.

You begin to catastrophise, so normally innocuous events get blown up into forerunners of disaster. Only you can see the potential horror that is about to ensure.

You don't consciously decide to worry

Worry isn't something you deliberately decide to do. It's an unconscious, irrational response.

Just telling yourself not to worry, or even having someone else tell you not to do it (you can hear them now, with their "stop worrying!"), doesn't seem to have any effect.

So how can you calm down all that emotional arousal so that you can think clearly again?

Why hypnosis is a highly effective way to calm down excessive worries

Stop Worrying About Others is an audio hypnosis session developed by psychologists experienced in the treatment of anxiety. It uses powerful hypnotic suggestions to calm the fears coming from your unconscious mind.

As you relax and listen repeatedly to your session, you'll notice that:

• the anxious feelings begin to dissipate all by themselves
• the worrying thoughts lose their power over you
• you can think more clearly and take practical action if required
• the quality of your close relationships improves
• you enjoy life much more
