What do you do against being nervous? I'm nervous and worrying without really good reasons. I'm off to bed now, read something for distraction. But inside my head and stomach it feels like this (about 2:30 in):

i get nervous a lot too, and it's mostly about things that don't end up coming true. one would think that over time this would decrease my tendancy to be nervous... nope.

how do i cope with this? i more or less just try to live with it. i can't ignore it, and the more i try, the more things seem to remind me of what i am nervous about.

i guess i really have no answer whatsoever for you, mirella. but i wouldn't mind co-signing off on this thread. if you find an answer, let me know.

nervousness. anxiety. yup.

I'd listen to some tunes. To anyone has a more irregular problem with this, like it's a daily thing. The best way to cure a lot of anxieties etc is to just force rational thinking on yourself. Just be frank about it.

sounds like anxiety you're talking about- it sux! there's meds for it, therapy, but i don't know how to make it go away completely

Thanks everybody. It's true, I should face the facts. There are reasons enough. Sunday night is the night before Monday, and I hate my job. Then I also hadn't finished my finances yet. Two good reasons. And on top of it I had a bit of stomach/belly trouble, so that should be enough. Going to bed and watching a bit of TV (I was too nervous to read) helped. But I woke up from a nightmare so the feeling is totally back again. It's quiet at work and there's nothing wrong, so I guess it's a matter of rationalizing indeed. And finding another job .

i hope and pray that you find a solution or at least some solace.

thanks . Well, I'll be forced to do things this week anyway, so that may help. Tonight we'll have to hurry to see Cat Power in Amsterdam and tomorrow night I'll start with a test of 3 times sport a week, for 6 weeks. I was nervous about that too, but it's actually only good. I mean, there is life besides the long work days .
