I learned to control my thoughts recently and now I feel that it's the greatest discovery of my life. By controlling my thoughts, I can do every thing in my life. Although I agree that it requires consistent practice, I am ready to give another five years of my life to change my cognitions if it has already taken 34 years of my life to bring me to the point of chronic depression, lack of confidence in whatever I undertake, social anxiety and everything. My life was in a mess. Now I have decided to bring some order into it by controlling my ANT. Rashid Julie,

I started laughing when I read this because lately whenever I get sick I have those exact same ANTs! I think gratitude is the key to, well, everything. So when I start freaking out about disease progression, I make up a gratitude list where I list all the things I'm grateful for...usually gets me to stop thinking so much about myself.
