I meditate when I start having problems. I also find getting involved in projects takes my mind off things.

san you must meditate all the time, practice , practice everyday, at least for 10-15 min, but everyday, the best is at the same time, but it does not have to. Your Saying that you meditate, when you start having problems tells me that you do not meditate) No insult intended

I distract myself as much as possible to take my mind off any issues. I have a hobby I enjoy,
I like going to shopping malls, going out to eat, vacations, work, etc. Eventually you will
find what works best for you.

Thanks all for the tips I booked an appointment 30 mins ago and I'm making sure to write down everything. I have meditated a few times on holiday through instruction and it was truly amazing, however here at home... I don't know how to stop the worrying thoughts from entering if I'm alone, I'll give it a go sometime soon and see how I get on
