Death of a Pet - Overcoming Fear and Worry

I am guessing you have heard this before, a definition of F.E.A.R. as False Evidence Appearing Real, which means we have chosen to believe in something that is not really true. You must realize that this is our belief, so it becomes reality (by choice).

I love this!

Look at it this way; what if worrying is nothing more than a constant fear caused by indecisiveness. What if your fear or doing this activity is caused by you not doing it?

At times we ought to ask some hard-hitting questions to establish the source of these worries or fears. You can overcome that fear by using a simple prescription, as soon as the fear is recognized.

Describe with the most details what you are afraid of or worried about.

I am afraid that I will see another dog and that will make me cry.

I am afraid that I will feel mad at others because their dog is still alive.

Write in down on a piece of paper. Resolution of half of your worries and fears will occur, the instant you can describe them evidently by putting them on paper.

Seeing them on paper diffuses a lot of the energy these had from just being in your head.

In order to move on your will need to find resolution for the other half of your worries and fears. This is where some hard question need to be asked, like what is the worst possible thing that can come about if this fear or worry really happens?

What if I do go for that walk on the trail where I used to go with my dog, what is the worst that can happen?

Make a list of the worst possible outcome that can happen.

What if I start crying and everybody is looking at me.

What if I grab someone else's dog and start running.

What if I fall on the ground and can't move anymore.

What if I faint and nobody is there to help me.

Etc.

Write all of your worries and fears down on paper, keep going until you have exhausted all of the possibilities.
