  Hi @ellie2000 , some tips to stop worrying include mindfulness and meditation, challenging negative thoughts, limiting information intake, setting aside "worry time". You can choose strategies depend on your preference

  I agree with Terry's suggestions. There are lots of things you can do to help you to stop worrying about things in the moment. Although sometimes, depending on the situation, it can be normal to worry about whatever is going on around you. It becomes a problem if you realise that you spend all or most of your time worrying and that you aren't able to feel calm or relaxed.
  
  How are you coping with worrying at the moment?

  @Maisy @Terry8936 I started drinking some reason. Does it make emotional agony go away? Is tht a way to cope?

  Hi @ellie2000 like terry said its good to practice mindfulness to get some peace from worrying, is there anything you think you would be able to do to help? Drinking doesn't always help and can sometimes make situations worse so its best to try and find a mindfulness technique that is helpful to you in a healthy way
