Those four words may be a neat philosophy but, accord- ing to worry specialist Dr. Beverly Potter, they're easier said than done. "I don't like that expression because it .suggests that you shouldn't be worrying,", says the Cali- fornia author of The Worry- wart's Companion. The trouble with worrying is that. it can get completely out of control and has, ahabit of . escalating. Actor/direc- tor Woody Allen, a famous worrywart, illustrated this best when he• said, "If I get chapped lips, I think it's brain cancer." Worrying is a kind of "stuckness," Potter told me re- cently. Or as she writes in her book's intro, worrywarts "get stuck in identifying danger as they immerse .themselves in the dread associated with the threat, which may be real or, morelikely, imagined." Don't think worrying is bad for you, she told me. "Think of it as a mental fire drill, a thinking through of things that potentially might happen. It's good *to think over what could. happen and to have a contingency plan. That is what productive and effective people do." The problem is that the pro- cess generates anxiety. Wor- rywarts can become melo- dramatic and waste precious time. As American writer Mark Twain said, "There has been much tragedy in my life. And at least half of it actually happened!" Worrywarts can't live in the here and now. Chronic worry can evolve into. panic attacks, says Pot- ter. "The anxiety generates more worry, then more anxi- ety, then round and round you go." A. twinge in your chest makes you believe you could have a heart attack, a news story about a home invasion 200 km away keeps you up at night because you fear some- one will break in when you're asleep. Leach to stop the worry cy- cle, says Potter. "You need to understand that just because you 'feel worried doesn't mean there is anything wrong. It's just your body reacting to those frightening thoughts you 'are thinking:' Worrying is hard to give up, she says. Like a superstition, worry gives people relief and even reduces anxiety. • One story Potter likes to tell is about two women, one of whom is madly waving her arms about. When the second woman asks her what's she's doing, the first .woman replies that she's keeping the tigers away. "But there are no ti- gers here," the second woman says. • "See," says the woman waving her. arms.."It's work- ing!" ork-ingl" Potter's .book (for more in- formation, visit www.docpot- ter.com) is •filled with excel- lent insight into worry and dozens of practical tips. One point she stresses is that wor- rywarts catastrophize: Who among us who fears flying can't relate to obsessing about the plane crashing.— despite the statistical improbability? Worrywarts always gravi- tate to the worst possible sce- nario, says Potter. "It's like the mother who worries that her son isn't home. She thinks he's been in a horrid accident and is in the morgue. • • "She never thinks that may- be the opposite has happened: His coach asked him to stay behind while they discuss the fact that a scout was so im pressed with him on the field that he wants to offer him a football scholarship.'.' Learn to worry smart, is her advice. "Smart worriers don't automatically flip into worry- ing, like a -knee-jerk reaction," she says. Smart worriers learn to soothe themselves so that they can bounce back from initial worries. Smart worriers learn "self -talk" -- a kind of inner dialogue ilwiatich they talk to themselveglfie way a friend would, encouraging themselves .and challenging extremes. Smart worriers are hopeful, not hopeless. Smart worriers imagine positive possibilities, limit their worries to worry places or diaries, identify worry triggers, rate their wor- ries on a scale of one to 10, challenge their worries and learn how to under -react. Worrying is a style, says Potter. "You can learn a new habit, but it takes effort. It's easy to fall back into the habitual thinking pattern. Worry be- gets worry." -Sun Media
